@trustissues It is possible for a server to specify that a file should be downloaded rather than viewed, so it is necessary to know if this happens for all PDFs or only certain ones.

@leocg I just checked a few sites and it seems to be only PDFs from facebook. The "fix" from my previous thread last year worked on all sites. So I'm not sure if this is a programming bug or compatibility issue. I'm part of a few woodworking groups and I occasionally view PDFs with plans, if I like them I download them. Now there's no viewing them, just downloads.
Also, you moved my post out of Opera Windows, but I'm using Opera One on Windows 10. Did I post in the wrong group?

@sgunhouse It seems to be only PDFs on facebook. I checked a few other sites and viewing is no issue. When I had this problem last year it was across all sites, but the solution fixed it (even on facebook). So I'm not sure if there was FB change or a bug in Opera or just something missing in my opera update, or just a compatibility thing. I'm running Opera One on Windows 10.

@trustissues Could be a new setting on Facebook as well.
