The only thing I can think of is to download the PDF first, then view it on your local machine. You can download by using Shift+click on the PDF link rather than just clicking on it. This will open the Save As dialog. When you save the file to your local machine, it will show you progress. The downside is that you have to save to your local disk, but at least you get the progress of the download. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
