Title:
Firefox does not display PDF using plugin
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Setting: vanilla Natty installation, Firefox 4 and the Adobe PDF
plugin from Adobe Reader 9.
Instead of trigerring the PDF plugin and displaying the PDF within the
browser, a dialog appears asking how to handle the file.
To reproduce go to
http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.110.6657&rank=1
If you click the PDF button unter "cached", the PDF is not loaded within the
browser.
If you however click, for example the second link under "Downloads"
everything works as should.
This seems to be a problem with several journal sites.
behaviour is the same when using mozplugger + evince instead of the
Adobe PDF plugin, or using the Adobe Reader 8 plugin.
It seems to be related to how Firefox 4 handles file downloads.
