Hi all, I remember in older versions of Firefox (within the past 6 months) that pdfs embedded in a page would be a hyperlink that you had to click which would open in another tab. Now pdfs automatically open which is very annoying as it makes it difficult to read, while I found a way to open it in another tab I was wondering if there is a setting I can disable so I can just click on a hyperlink.

Thanks in advance

I had the opposite issue. Embedded pdf's did not open in the page. The pages generally have embedded audio and a sermon outline. example: http://edwardnc.org/ecc/2025/11nov/09/default.html The issue was an extension.
