In either event, I get this in nearly ghosted typeface: Your window is being redirected. If your PDF does not appear in 5 seconds, please click the link: amt11.pdf And clicking that link doesn't work either. Iceweasels prefs say in about:config, that it is supposed to call okular for that display, it is installed. But in this installation, iceweasel has yet to download and show me, a pdf. Usually it can "save as" but on this site, it saves a text/html file that does not even contain an FQDN version of the link to the pdf file. Konquerer can't even load the above link. I'll put chromium back in to see if that works. Yes it works. So what the heck is blocking iceweasel? > There I clicked on the (top right) "PDF datasheet" clicky-whatsit. > Downloading took a long time for its small size, but an "Open Menu -> > Save Page" in iceweasel then promptly saved the pdf in the "Downloads" > directory.
