Guys,
Need your experience and brains here. Okay here's the deal. I did a fresh install of win7 x64 and adobe acrobat 9. When I go to a site and IE8 tries to open a pdf document I get two results. It can open and again it can't. It can and can't. Mostly it can't, but sometimes it can. It's like gambling. Sometimes I click once and it opens. Sometimes I click 20 times and it doesn't open. It is vey ramdom. I'm talking about IE8 opening a PDF within the browser. If I go into adobe acrobat program and uncheck the "display pdf in browser" then it will download the file just fine and I can open it just fine within acrobat. I but need to have it open in the browser.
The ERROR is also very wierd. I get a pop-up box with with a blue "?" inside and no text or error messages. The only option was to click the "ok" button and the window pop-up window closes and nothing gets displayed.
Does anyone have this problem and how to they solve it. If I use firefox it opens just fine within the browser. You ask why not use firefox..... Right, see the website I'm using doesn't like firefox they want you to use IE because firefox will display a bunch of settings incorrectly. So now I'm stuck. I do prefer IE8 as I'm use to it more, but I need to know how to make this work. I did google up the issue and came to the conclusion that it is IE8 that is simply not storing/caching the file locally long enough before the PDF could be display it is simple delete from the cache, so therefore I simple get the pop-up error dialogue. Many says this is the issue, but to avail is there a solution.
Please help if you know a way to solve this. Our friendly google search did mention something about writing a code so that IE8 simply stores the cache file for a sec or two longer so that IE8 has enough time to display the file before deletion, but no idea how this is done or can it even be done without some mad coding.
Windows is up to date.
Reinstall acrobat 9, same thing
Tried the acrobat 9.3 and it does the same thing
Check IE to see if the plug-ins are enable which they are
SO FRUSTRATED, don't know what else to try. HELP!!!!!!!!
IE8 64bit and IE8 32bit is the same deal. So no luck there.
Your Inputs and solutions?
