    Using Okular to View PDF's on ".asp/.aspx" Web Site

    Recently I have been using Mozplugger and Okular to view PDF's on websites via FireFox 3.5. Thus far I have been very happy with this combination and was not disappointed to rid my Linux system of Adobe Reader. However, one of our vendors has a website for their customers that is a ".aspx" site. The site stores several PDF files that we used to access via Acrobat Reader and FireFox.

    I visited this site for the first time since converting to Mozplugger/Okular and when I tried to view a PDF I get this error

    "Could not open file:///tmp/plugtmp/plug-in-DocumentRepositary2.asp"
    .

    Can someone tell me what I need to configure to view PDF's with Mozplugger/Okular on ".asp/.aspx" sites? I really do not want to install Adobe Reader on my system again as I have had issues for over a year with Reader and Firefox on Linux.

    Regards,

    ASP is a Microsoft web page and is yet another lock in.

    It may require some handshaking.....
