So I'm sure this is something other people like but it drives me nuts. when clicking on a link that is not a direct link to a pdf (usually some sort of php script) I cant save to downloads. because it will download the php file.

I know I can wait till it loads then save it in the file menu but i dont see why I have to do that since every other browser I have ever used sans Safari will do it. WIth safari there was some sort of pref file that had to be edited but I dont know where that would be in Omniweb.

ps I have open safe files unchecked and I dont have acrobat so that plugin is not installed

Thanks

Hi,

Just run the following from terminal:

defaults write com.omnigroup.OmniWeb5 WebKitOmitPDFSupport -bool true

The 5.7 sneaky peeks have a checkbox in display preferences to enable/disable inline viewing.
