Hi,

I'm using Firefox 21 and it's up to date. My OS is win 7 and it's up to date.

When I try some links to pdf files, I can view them in Firefox using the Adobe plug-in. Other pdf file links will make firefox ask me if I want to open using Adobe Acrobat or save the file.

For example, this link can be viewed in Firefox using the Adobe plug-in.

http://static.mozilla.com/moco/en-US/pdf/mozilla_privacypolicy.pdf

However, this link tries to make me either save the file or view it externally in Adobe Acrobat

Please let me know if you need more info.

Thanks,

G

It's the standard behavior because the first link has the .pdf-ending and the other link doesn't. In the second link is an option set(Content-Disposition attachment;filename=<<filename>>.pdf). This option says to the Browser, that the file has to be downloaded as an attachement. I don't know, if it works with .pdf-Files, but you can try to install the "Open in Browser"-Add-on. It will show you another option in the Save file-Dialog which opens you the file in the browser. I hope i could help you.
