Has anybody figured out a way to get PDFs to open within safari INSTEAD of downloading them to the Downloads folder. I have one site in particular that uses a frame to show me matches in the various PDFs. But now, I am forced to download each one and view them separately in Preview, losing the functionality I once enjoyed.

I want to stay away from Acrobat, but unless I can get this fixed, I may have to switch back.

Thanks.

Phil

i think chrome can view it online and safari does it as well as i remembered. and 100% sure that firefox does not support unless there will be a plugin release to support it...
 
I used to also have the ability to view inline PDFs in Safari, but at some point they began to only download.
