I believe the problem is with the servers sending the PDF files and how they indicate the MIME type. You can complain to the Web administrators about this. There might be nothing you can do about it in SeaMonkey. -- David E. Ross I am sticking with SeaMonkey 2.26.1 until saved passwords can be used when autocomplete=off.
