The Adobe site has information on how to pass parameters in a url when
opening a pdf. Specifically I am trying to pass the pdf the parameter
that specifies the location of a FDF file with data to populate the
fields in the pdf. This function seems to work fine in IE but when I
use the same url in firefox I get the pdf opened but none of the
fields are filled. It seems like the plugin is either ignoring the
parameter or is interpreting the fdf url differently than I would
expext. A sample of the url I am entering in firefox is here...

http://localhost/WEB1/pdfs/my_sample.pdf#fdf=http://localhost/WEB1/temp/test1.fdf

This url works as expected in IE.

any ides?

Thanks.
