Hello all first time post.
I have a problem I cant seem to get my head around.I have created a web site for our local yacht club , on the links page I have added links to PDF files ,I am using dreamweaver 8 .
The Pdf links work fine in firefox but not in IE ,I have changed file names ,put files in root directory ,remade the pdf document as a html even the link still will not work , However if a create a flash button to the pdf link it works fine in both browsers.I even created the page in fireworks and added a link in fireworks ,and it still wont work .
I created the PDF files from a word document using acrobat 7.
Thank you all for your time and consideration.
Peter
