Works fine here too. The only change I notice is in Acroread's behavior. Previously, I had Acroread 5 and when I opened a pdf from Firefox it would open in a new Acroread 5 window (with the ugly gray border, toolbar, etc). After instaling version 7 it still openned in a new windows (altough it had a bettter looking toolbar). I tried to reproduce your problem by shutting down Firefox and starting it again. That is when the change in behaviour occured. Now when I open a pdf from Firefox, it opens inside of Firefox's window. It must be something related to this change that causes your problem. Unfortunately, it doesn't tell you what the solution might be. -- Louis Brazeau Informaticien -- [email protected] mailing list
