Others in my office use FileDropPlugin daily to create tiddlers that link to pdf files created by our scanning software. However, I just tried to use it myself and it's not working. When I drop a pdf file onto the TW file in my browser window, rather than creating a tiddler, the browser opens the pdf file for viewing within the browser. I checked the about:config setting as suggested by Eric in the FileDropPlugin usage notes, and have the same problem whether the setting is set to true or false.
My assumption is that the problem is with a setting in either Adobe Reader or in Firefox. I did recently upgrade Adobe Reader from ver 8.x to ver 9.2.0. I think everyone else in our office is using ver 8.x, but I had to upgrade to maintain compatibility with another application that uses reader. I have discovered that by updating FileDropPlugin from ver. 0.1.1 to the most current version the problem is fixed. So I know how to correct the problem for the future, but we have a ton of TW's that are using the old version of FileDropPlugin without any complaint. So I guess I'd like to know exactly what the source of the problem is that I experience on my machine so the other users don't run into the same problem I just encountered. All TW & linked pdf files are locally stored. Firefox is ver. 3.5.x TW core is ver. 2.2.5 or 2.4.1 ~Roger -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
