    Hello,

    I am having an issue right now with how a user would view my PDF.

    I have created a protected directory that contains a PDF file. Users can go to that directory and then open the PDF in the browser just as intended. The issue with this is that I don't want users to go to that ugly index page then have to chose the file. I would like the PDF's to just be right there in their member area.

    The problem is is that the PDF files that are stored in that default "Active Resources" area do not open in a browser as intended, they automatically ask the user to save and download the file.

    Is this possible? Have I just messed up a permission issue somewhere?

    Regards,
