Steps to reproduce:
I'm developing a WorPress site. For viewing pdf files, I use a lightbox plug-in that opens the pdf file in a lightbox (when the link is clicked), allowing the user to view it before printing or downloading it (depending on the user's choice).
Actual results:
In the current Firefox version, the lightbox opens but empty with the clickable pdf title in the middle. And when you click on it, the pdf is downloaded on the pc.
Expected results:
Before, everything works perfectly in Firefox that's to say the pdf were displayed in the lightbox with the icon option of downloaded or printed (according to the plugin settings). And it still works perfectly with Chrome.
The only solution now with Firefox is to change the Firefox settings and put “Open with Firefox” in front of the pdfs, but you can't ask a site user to do that. As a result, my site no longer works with Firefox, whereas it worked perfectly before. I hope you can help me. Thank you very much.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::PDF Viewer' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Could you share a link to your website so we can have a look?

Hi,
I can't because I'm working for the moment with Local, that's to say that my website is "hosted" on my PC. Could I send you some files or screen captures ? Please tell me ?
Best regards
Christèle

For the most part, these are for pdfs that I put in my Wp media library, but unless I'm mistaken, it does exactly the same thing with a pdf directly from a website. Lightbox used to override Firefox settings, and now it's the other way around, Firefox settings predominate, and that's not possible for the functionality of my site. The site is quite large, with a lot of pdf files to consult, it's for an association, I really hope you'll be able to help me.

What is the lightbox plug-in you use?

Closing as most likely this is a duplicate of bug 1942753.
