For FF19 with PDFs, can the yellow "Open With Different Viewer" pop-up bar be disabled?
Hi all, I really like the built in PDF viewer because search as a I type works with, thanks FF devs!
But ... I get this yellow pop-up with many PDFs I view: This PDF document might not be displayed correctly and a button for Open With Different Viewer
The thing is these PDFs seem fine and I have to close the warning every time.
Is there anyway this pop-up can be disabled or I can set an about:config setting to skip it? I can manually save a PDF or disable FF19's viewer if there's a noticeable problem with the FF19 viewer.

No. The yellow bar appears when the PDF contains elements Firefox knows it may have problems handling. There is no way to disable it
Ok, since the pop up bar can't be disabled I'll disable the built in PDF viewer. Too bad, I like the search as you type feature with PDFs but this un-disable-able pop-up bar is not user friendly.
You can also look at the latest version of the PDF Viewer (pdfjs) extension to see if that fixes some issues.
