When I click a .pdf file link in IE, it opens in the browser window, but in Firefox I only get the download file option. Is there a setting in Firefox that I'm overlooking, as I want .pdf files to display like in IE. Selecting the 'Open with Firefox' option does nothing.

Do you have the Adobe Acrobat plug-in for Firefox installed?

How curious, I followed that link, and saw that it was to download the full version of Adobe Reader, but I already have that installed. I've just looked in it's settings and found a box to check, and now all is well.
Since it's a setting in Adobe itself, how come it worked in IE but not Firefox? Oh well, thanks, problem sorted. :j0
