Yes, I have heard of this before. Two things to check here. First check in Acrobat Reader -> Edit -> Preferences -> Options and see if the "Display PDF in Browser" is checked. Second check in Windows Explorer -> Tools -> Folder Options -> File Types tab for the PDF extension and click the change button to see if it is still associated with the Acrobat Reader program.
The final fix I've found is to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat Reader, that sometimes fixes it. - Todd -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2004 9:42 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [wdvltalk] linking to files... We've a problem on our site... we have several pdf's for download. On different computers, we have differnt results when people click on the link... 1. the user automatically downloads the pdf and opens it in the browser window 2. The user gets an open/save/cancel dialog box 2a, Open causes acrobat to say an error was detected 2b. save, works just fine I've compared IE verson No etc, on my bosses and my computer etc... and they're idnetical... It seems to work for everyone when the user right clicks and saves as... I've put a disclaimer up to say this, but my boss still doesn't do that, and she keeps getting errors... So, has anyone heard of this before? ____ • The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM • ____ To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Send Your Posts To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To set a personal password send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words: "set WDVLTALK pw=yourpassword" in the body of the email.
