PDF Browser Plugin works in Firefox (0.8.0+) 20040519 NB without downloading PDF
file.
But Camino (v0.8b+) 20040522 NB downloads PDF file without "about:plugins".

WFM using Camino/0.8b and PDF Plug-in 2.0.1 on OS X 10.3.3. On first access the
Plug-in registration dialog appears; I select Personal Use Only and the
requested PDF file then displays just fine.

When you quit and relaunch Camino, does PDF Plug-in work without downloading file?

Comment 4

[Greg K.]

Yes.

Comment 5

[Eiichi]

I deleted my profile and plist, then on first access PDF Plug-in works fine.
But when I quit and relaunch Camino, PDF Plug-in doesn't work and downloads a file.

Eiichi, try with a new OS user profile.

Comment 7

[Eiichi]

I'm yet to try with a new OS user profile.
But in Camino 0.7(Release) PDF Plug-in works fine.

Comment 8

[Stuart Morgan]

Note that Camino 0.7 uses the ~/Library/Chimera profile, not the
~/Library/Camino. So if there's something wrong with your newer Camino profile,
it wouldn't show up it 0.7.

Have you tried just using a clean Camino profile by moving ~/Library/Camino?

Now I confirm ;
In Preferences / Web Features
1) When "Enable Java" is unchecked, PDF Plug-in doesn't work.
2) When "Enable Java" is checked, PDF Plug-in works.

Can you confirm this is reproducible?

Yes, I can reproduce this. After turning off "Enable Java" and restarting Camino 0.8b, plug-ins in *full 
mode* don't work any more (tested with QuickTime and PDF Browser Plugin). Embedded they continue 
to work. Odd.

For reference:

A. Camino 0.8b
1) PDF Plug-in doesn't work when Java is turned off.
2) Whenever Camino loads QuickTime and PDF Plugin, Console logs;
__________________________________________
/Applications/Camino.app/Contents/MacOS/Camino: can't map file:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/QuickTime Plugin.plugin ((os/kern) invalid argument)
/Applications/Camino.app/Contents/MacOS/Camino: can't map file:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/PDF Browser Plugin.plugin ((os/kern) invalid argument)
__________________________________________

B. Camino 0.7(Release) 
1) PDF Plug-in works fine though Java is turned off.
2) When Camino loads QuickTime and PDF Browser Plugin, Console logs nothing.

Marking Confirmed per comment 10.

Comment 13

[Eiichi]

I think this and bug 199203 should be fixed in 0.8, because 0.7 didn't have
these bugs.
This is regression.

Comment 15

[Eiichi]

Testing with nightly build 3/1/05 this problem seems to be
resolved due to fixing Bug 220730.

Can anyone confirm this?

Comment 16

[Simon Fraser [no longer active]]

Probably fixed. Can someone test?

Comment 17

Verified with v2.2.2 of the PDF plugin.
