I think you have to d/l it as php, then manually change the extension to pdf. Then you can open it with Adobe reader.

I am not sure you can change it to pdf. But for Adobe to open it, it would have to be in that format. PHP is a widely used, general-purpose scripting language that was originally designed for web development to produce dynamic web pages. I did a little training in dynamic web page development and decided that it was more than I wanted to learn since making web pages was more of a hobbie for me!

I tried to change extension but there is no option to alter it.

Yeah I dont think its goin to happen. But why does the file say pdf but when it downloads it comes up php? Its confusing.

It's cause the Forum software will not allow upload of a pdf file so the extension was changed to fool the Forum software. I think that was Rad's suggestion in the original thread.

Can't you go into your directory where you have put the file and just rename it as something.pdf? Oh, now I remember, you are using a phone. Never mind.

I dont get this 'problem', but get a dialog box offering to view or download. Many times I just click 'view' and view on-line. It still has to D/L the file for viewing. If I want to save it after all, at that point, I am able to click "file, save, etc. -hey- (I use SUMATRA as default pdf viewer)
