Hi,

I have this url to a ASP.NET page which delivers a pdf: http://www.kk.dk/PolitikOgIndflydelse/ByensStyre/Borgerrepraesentationen/Referater/~/media/D621A5145D2E42BEBB21AAC9E1DD105E.ashx

If i add this one in WSW the pdf plugin is not identified/recogonized and a page with only the url/link is shown.
The webserver actually returns a HTTP header containing: Content-Type: application/pdf, so why does it not pick/use the pdf plugin? or rather to say, how do i setup WSW to do this?

best regards,

Torben.

The PDF plugin needs a .pdf extension in the URL to automatically identify a file as PDF file.

For the PDF you posted, you have to select the PDF plugin manually:

1. Open bookmark properties
2. Select the "Advanced" tab
3. Select "Plugin" on the left side
4. Select the PDF Plugin (under Shared Plugins)

Then delete the locally saved files with Ctrl+Shift+Del (optional, will prevent to highlight the whole content with the next check) and re-check the page.

Upps, I saw that my solution doesn't work and you get an error message after re-checking the page. Will try to find a working solution now...

I had to enhance the plugin identification system now to get this working.
Will be included in the next major update...
