How to link a PDF files to open in a new browser window

Post by ahmedx4 »

Hi, great plugins for Joomla! thx a lot for all your efforts :)
All I wanna do is to let PDF files open in a new browser window instead of prompting for download, simple like the normal case without Phoca Download management. I tried to play with {pdf=application/pdf} in (Allowed File Types) in Phoca settings with no luck :(

I tried those statements instead but it didn't work:
{pdf=text/webviewhtml}
{pdf=text/html}

Please help!

Hi, there is no such option, it is download component which ads info about download to browser.

You can use preview function to display the pdf.
