Media downloads open in the browser

Recently, I noticed a quirk with the downloading of media. On the homepage of the thecompass.net of the site, the first image of rotation is linked to a file/PDF file that was transferred via FTP, and when you click it, the file opens in Safari and Chrome.

However, a link in the lower left corner that says "Download the Guide" is related to an element of documentation, which is also a PDF document, but was transferred via the media downloads feature, but when you click it, it will automatically download the file... it is not to open it in the browser.

No idea why these two links to a PDF file cause the browser to behave differently?

Supposed to be like that, because they are the elements of media if you look at the URL is a reference and no file extension so that the browser does not support it. This then allows a straight download and therefore allows to record stats for the download.

It is itended and wanted characteristic because if downloading media, you want to do just that, download the item not display in the browser

  • Computer lag when Media Hub opens in the browser

    When I have the Media Hub opened in my browser (IE), it takes several attempts to click on what whether the click 'register '.

    For example, with the browser open on the device home screen, if I try to click on another tab to open a second session of navigation, a simple click does not open another tab. It takes 3 or 4 clicks for several seconds to open another tab.

    Another example is when I click on the Configuration button on the home screen of the device.  I need to click several times until the button turns green and shows the Configuration page.

    In all cases, a simple click and a long pause does not work.  It's almost like 'links' are dead until after a few clicks, then the links become active and the final trigger is the desired result.

    Any suggestions?

    Found the isssue.  This is a wireles mouse, not the media server. Several factors converge at the same time sounding lead me to believe that it was the Member States, after having eliminated every variable one by one, I found the cause.  The receiver for the wireless mouse is in the back of my machine.  I moved it to the front (closest to the mouse) and the connection is better, causing no lag when I click.  Thanks for your help.

  • Anyway to download a file directly from acrobat without him open in the browser.

    I created a form of simple interactive command to our distributors. I intend to provide the form by e-mail, specifically of mailchimp. However, in mailchimp during binding to a file it will open in the browser. It is a problem because the Send button does not work correctly in some browsers, IE, Firefox and Chrome. Is it possible to download a file to your computer right in Acrobat, or y at - it a simple way I could program the file to download on the computer rather than the browser to mailchimp. I'm not a programmer, so I didn't know if it was an option or not.

    Thank you

    Can't you just include the PDF file as an attachment to the email?

  • Cannot .jnlp file open when asked to open with the browser web firefox in ubuntu 11.10 using firefox 6

    After the upgrade to ubuntu 11.10 the firefox browser 6 download and open from the website interactivebrokers .jnlp file. Usually, I go to the IB website and download the tws.jnlp file that opens in the browser web firefox. But now when I click on open it with the button in the Firefox browser, firefox browser opens a new tab and view the same open the window again.

    Seems that, after the upgrade to 11.10, jnlp files will open with firefox instead of javaws (Java Web Start).
    If you right-click on the file in the download folder and choose 'Open with', you can start web java manually.
    Bug in Ubuntu...

    You can do a right click any .jnlp file and select 'Properties', go to 'Open with' tab, mark Sun Java 6 Web Start and click "set as default". Should fix. I don't know what will happen if you have java ubuntu by default instead of the Sun may be that it is not necessary.

We had no problem sharing the workbook for the last two weeks, but this morning, we are all getting an error message saying "Workbook is larger than the maximum size of workbook can be opened in the browser" and cannot access it at all. It's a very important workbook we need on a daily basis at work, then I would greatly appreciate any advice you could provide!

  • Possibility for the PDFS linked to be opened in the browser?

    Hello

    I use 9 Captivate and I wonder if it's possible for a PDF linked to open separating it into PDF format, rather than in a new browser window.

    For example, the PDF file has automatic update fields that are not updated when opened in the browser, but updates correctly when opened in Adobe Acrobat.

    Thank you

    Hello

    To my knowledge, how any linked file opens or that is completely dependent on the end-user device and how it has been configured to process regardless of the file is.

    I would be surprised to discover that you can influence exactly what happens when the user clicks on the link.

    I don't believe in other words, you can force a specific behavior.

    See you soon... Rick

  • AdobeConnect open in the browser in firefox

    Hello

    I am trying to open Adobe Connect in browser Firefox (on Mac, but generally on any OS).

    It works in Safari and Chrome.

    I was able to identify the issue when you run the following code.

    < h1 > Acrobat Connect Pro iframe test < / h1 >

    " < iframe src =" https://my.adobeconnect.com/yukochap?guestName=Antoine & [email protected] [email protected] "style =" width: 1000px; " height: 500px; » >

    < / iframe >

    I have attached the code in a small document so that you can try yourself - test_adobe_connect.html. You will see my results as screenshots.

    (1) Firefox: does not work in the browser, works in the module

    (2) chrome: Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro plugin detected - open in the browser and automatically connected

    (3) safari: Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro plugin detected - open in the browser and automatically connected

    I need the good url/attributes to open in the iframe to open adobe connect correctly.

    Looking at the documentation, I couldn't find any clues.

    Thank you

    Try adding & Launcher = false after login.

    For example: https://my.adobeconnect.com/yukochap?guestName=Antoine&launcher=false

    Who will say Connect do not use the Add-in. If the add-in is available then it opens in its own window you see in FireFox.

  • HTML, defined as the chain opened in the browser of the device, and not internal webkit

    I have the stupidest bug AIR here on iOS. HTML defined as string to StageWebView now open in the browser on the device with the URL like this http://adobe.13323422.apollo.air/

    It doesn't happen on the device (iPhone or iPad), in the Simulator. Anyone?

    Answering my own question where others stumble upon the same problem. I got my StageWebView a listener:

    htmlContainer.addEventListener(LocationChangeEvent.LOCATION_CHANGING, handleExternalUrl );
    

    My problem was double. First of all, I had to check that property .location on the event passed to my handleExternalUrl handler object did not contain the string "apollo.air". No url should never contain a called .air TLD so this test never fail :-)

    Secondly, I'm. preventDefault() and this has prevented other things happen as it should be in the application. Now works perfectly. It's still weird that this has occurred on iOS devices and not in the iOS and/or any other device Simulator.

  • I want PDF to open in the browser, no download. I can't find a setting to do this.

    Other browsers open a PDF on the web in the browser, what pleases me.
    Firefox wants to download, I don't like.
    The parameters do not seem to allow me this choice for the pdf. Other types of work files.

    Hello

    Try renaming your mimetypes.rdf file in your profile folder - where the actions of the file are stored, so when it fails, Firefox will recreate this file. I hope that when this happens, it will be by default so that the files PDF opens in Firefox.

    To access your account profile if Firefox is open:

    • Go to the troubleshooting page, either:

      • Enter Subject: support in your address bar and press on enter
      • Go to help (or

        >

        ) > Troubleshooting information

    • In the page that opens, click the view file"" button.
    • (Firefox) output

      >

      )

    See article profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other data from the user for more information, such as where to search for the folder where Firefox is not open.

    Rename the mimetypes.rdf in mimetypes.old file, and then restart Firefox. If it works, you can delete the mimetypes.old file. If it isn't and you wish to return your application settings, you can rename the file mimetypes.old to mimetypes.rdf (make sure that you quit Firefox before that).

  • Download the file created from BLOB (as opposed to open in the browser)

    Hello, everyone.

    This project is really pushing me to become familiar with many functions, that I have never worked with before.

    The question this time:

    If I have a database table that contains the files (and these may be, PDF, TXT, DOC, XLS, or PPT) and want to allow a user to download and save a particular file (as opposed to opening the file in the browser), how can I get it?

    If the file exists on the server, which would be quite simple.  But if it is created on the fly via BLOB data?

    V/r,

    ^_^

    Yes, assuming that the BLOB is in the right binary format.  Like this:

  • Add tabs and toolbar add-ons disappeared at the opening of the browser closed.

    I've deleted and reinstalled 17.01 three times now. The first time was to enter my bank site. The second because I still had problems with the download. My browser has been working well for a few weeks. I was using the browser, it closed with open tabs (oh, and I have an open tab alert, since the upgrade to 17). Normally, when I reopen it the browser, all the tabs are there and open. This time, the tabs were opened but my add tool bar on top has been closed, even though it has been verified to be opened. I closed the browser and reopened and was not just add it to the toolbar gone, but now all tabs have disappeared also. I uninstalled and reinstalled 17.01, and nothing has changed. I came to hate 17 with a passion.

    And, no, I have not installed anything new, and I did not tab mix (what ever that is) add on.

    I don't know if restarting the computer has changed the situation or not. The site of the Bank developed after the reboot.

    I am so angry, I lost a whole day dealing with this mess. And yet, I can't be sure that something will happen.

    I know that you tried to help me and I would be grateful, but everything I see right now is a ton of work a head of me, that I did not honestly.

  • PDF not opening in the browser

    Just yesterday I am unable to open a PDF file with my browser (Chrome).

    He wants me to download the file.  Until yesterday, I was able to open any file and just view it with the browser with download them as a file.

    What should I do to be able to go back to viewing a PDF file with uploading them?

    I feel the same way. I searched and it looks like Chrome version 42 will not activate the NPAPI Plugins.
