Re: Using Google Chrome to open IBM z/OS 2.4 Library Index ???

[Jon Perryman]

 Chrome is not open source. From the behavior, I don't believe MIME is 
involved. Remove the file type extension (e.g. jpg or pdf) and specify the file 
in the chrome address bar. I think chrome looks for eye catchers in file data 
to determine how to open the file.

This does not rule out some of the concepts involved with mime (e.g. use PHP or 
some other SSI to include a header with the file content information). I don't 
know if Chrome ignores or honors this information.

Does it support and even require (a subset of) MIME (RFC 1521) Content-types?
What does it do if a (standard) Content-type differs from the (customary) file 
extension?

What about the somewhat deprecated Flash?

[Jon Perryman]

 Sorry for the late reply. I just saw this question.
If you have questions about chrome browser, ask them in the google group 
chromium-discuss. In fact, questions about any chromium based browser (e.g. 
chrome, MS Edge and several others) can be asked here. Don't confuse 
chromium-os with chromium (people often refer to both as chromium which have 
different news groups).
For security reasons, Chrome does not support Windows file extensions. This is 
a huge security exposure with other browsers  (e.g. MS Word autorun script).
There are very few extensions that chrome supports (e.g. PDF) and  they use 
very specific low risk programs (not acrobat) to reduce the risk. It's very 
unlikely they will support file extensions. They may in a few years support PDX 
files but who knows.
Sorry for the bad news but this is the biggest reason I use chrome.

Hi Lionel,

Sorry for the confusion.  Using an HTML for the master table of

However, if you want to search, people should use the stand-alone free

I believe the browser is out of the picture then.  It's just Adobe processing 
the .pdx.

But the problem starting this thread was to cause the browser to recognize the
.pdx and start Adobe as a helper app.  Between easy and impossible, depending
on browser.

Some users never want to step outside the browser.

Lionel, 

Could it be that your PDF reader (or maybe the reader that Chrome wants to use) 
doesn't support PDFx files?  I usually use PDF-XChange, but it doesn't support 
PDFx files so I also got the text when I tried with it.  I installed Adobe 
reader and from File Explorer right-clicked and selected "Opened With", Adobe 
Reader and it worked fine.  

Hth,

The advantage of the .pdx is that it is a full index of the collection so that 
doing a search is significantly faster than doing a search of all the pdf's in 
the folder which requires opening each to search. 

Btw. Using Firefox I was prompted to define a file association, much like with 
Windows, on how to handle the .pdx and that worked great.  Would be nice if 
there was a way in Chrome to do that.

Correct - it will open the html file with no problem - but that isn't the

Open the Chrome index in your  z/OS 2.4 folder.
Chrome will not find the file.
Change the current URL in Chrome to point to your z/Os 2.4 folder on your hard 
drive.
It will open the Index.html  in your chrome browser.

The pdx is a true index to the collection whereas the index.html is really a

that's the only difference, and if it were up to me, I think I'd just combine

[Susan Shumway]

Thanks for the notice about this weird behavior, Lionel. I'll alert the 
Collection builder and see if he has any ideas.

When using Google Chrome with a bookmark to the .pdx for the z/OS

It opens in Adobe Reader just fine using Edge when bookmarked.



Any suggestions on how to 'fix' Chrome?
