PDF Plugin

[fnbcprog]

Does anyone know any good information on how to check if a browser has the PDF Plugin and how to save files from off the internet without having to do the right click thingy??

you can use javascript to detect the plugin...but if that is how you are delivering the data, then the user should have it already right...

as for the save you can use the http headers meta tags to handle that just make them send the file
