how can I stop firefox from wanting to download a form rather than open it?
Everytime I open a form in firefox, it wants to download the form to a file for me to save rather than just open the file in a pdf form or other applicable application. How can I change this? It is very frustrating. Thanks ~Mike

Hi
I should be able to help you with that.
- In Firefox, type about:preferences#applications into the address bar.
- Find Portable Document Format (PDF) in the list and set the option next to it to Preview in Firefox.
This will mean that when you open a pdf file on the web, it will open and be read in Firefox. You can then have the choice to save and print the file as required.
I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.
