View PDFs in Firefox 3, just like Safari

Users of Apple's Safari Web browser may be used to the ability to view PDFs natively right in the browser window, but until now Firefox users have been mostly left out in the cold.

Quartz PDF Plugin is a new add-on for Firefox 3 which brings the same capability as Safari. It worked perfectly in my tests. The plugin requires Firefox 3 running on OSX 10.4 or higher.




issue

Great that mac osx users can now view pdf messages inline in firefox...ideally the plugin would prompt us to choose whether we want to download it or view it inline because there are some pdfs that become unsavable once they get displayed inline...something to do with javascript, i think, though i'm no expert. any tips?
