I've been tearing my hair out for a little while trying to figure out why I can't display pdfs from Django in Firefox. I'm getting blank windows and I know it used to work ;-)
I'm using the code from the documentation (http:// www.djangoproject.com/documentation/outputting_pdf/), removing "attachment;" from the Content-Disposition to make the pdf display in- browser and not open an external viewer. I've printed the response object, and everything looks ok. It works fine in IE7. I can view other pdf files in FF (e.g. http://www.merlinautomation.co.uk/automation/pub/Test%20Product%20PDF.pdf). I read in an old thread that older versions of IE could have problems with the pdf/gzip combination, so that gave me the idea to turn off GZipMiddleware... and that "fixed it". I'd prefer to not turn of compression for all of my pages though, so two questions (1) does it seem reasonable that GZipMiddleware is the problem and if so (2) is there a way to turn it off on a per-view basis? -- bjorn --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
