Personally I would not link to any document (other than another
HTML page) without it being explicitly clear that the link is for
a PDF (or whatever kind of document).

Otherwise you could confuse people who use text to braille or
voice software, or even just be a pain for people who surf via
their phone.

I agree that it should be a link to a location which contains
the PDF link, and which makes clear that it's a PDF download.

[css-d] Quick Question About Rules

2008-12-09 Thread shaf
Is it proper to direct link a PDF document from a drop down main
navigation? I get a funny feeling about it and I have not seen an example
of any site that does it. My understanding is the main navigation should
be a link to a location which contains the PDF document.
