List_download plugin: PDF files won't open

[jchelpdeskwv]

Good day everyone:

Situation: I am using list_download in conjuction with the custom drop down menu to show the files in a folder and make the menu collapsable.

It works great in one page of the site:
http://www.jeffersoncountywv.org/government/departments/planning-and-zoning/planning/pc-minutes.html

It does not work well in another:
http://www.jeffersoncountywv.org/government/county-commission/agendas/jcc-agendas.html

What does not work?  While the files are listed and the drop down work on both, the PDF files can be opened on the first link, but they hang and do not open on the second link.  Any idea on what causes that behavior?

Well, what I found out does not solve the problem but at least rules out the plugin.

For some reason files under 2 MB are opened, but over that they just hang. 

So, instead of fixing the plugin, I have to figure out how to make the files downloadable.  And yes I changed my php.ini and config.php files.

With the last release of list_downloads I added a feature for reading PDF metadata. Therefore the plugin must parse the PDF file. Maybe thats the reason for your problem. But for parsing the PDF file, the parameter "pdf" has to be true.

Could you post the plugin call with the parameters you use?
