Broken PDF button in IE 30 Aug 2009 16:09 #1058

The PDF button in our Studies is working when viewed in Firefox, but not in IE8.

Here's one of the study links: Questioning Jesus.

It opens up a popup window, but no PDF appears in IE.

I can confirm this - the pdf does not display anything in IE8. This is true both in version 6.0.11a and the beta of 6.1. At this point I don't know what it causing it but will investigate.

As it turns out, pdf generation is also broken for Joomla articles in IE8 at least in Joomla version 1.5.14. So it isn't com_biblestudy. Hopefully a fix from the Joomla team is in the works.

The workaround is apparently to open the link up in a new IE tab. Then it works fine.

There is discussion and a fix, but it requires editing Joomla php files.
