I asked this question a few weeks ago but did not get much useful information, so I will try once more.

When I post data to a website from a PDF loaded outside of the browser, the webpage that comes back gets cached locally and loaded. This effectively takes all control away from the webserver (I can no longer postforms, retain data, etc.).

Can anyone explain to me how to shut this "feature" off? Or even why or how it does this?

Acrobat expects data (FDF, XDP, etc.) to be returned in the HTTP Response. Not HTML, which just confuses the situation. The easy solution is to have the website return one of these data formats.

HTTP POST in standalone Acrobat/Reader (Not in the browser)
