zotero attachments are blank on pdf.js
hi,
when i try to open a zotero pdf attachment with pdf.js it shows a blank pdf.js interface.
otherwise pdf.js opens pdf files like it should.
everything is updated, tried to disable all other firefox addons - nothing helps.
thanks.

(generally this works, so if it doesn't, something more specific is going on).
You're using FF 19 presumably?
installed zotero addon and pdf viewer.
when i drag pdf in- everything is fine, but when double clicking on an zotero pdf attachment - i get the pdf.js blank-grey interface.
the same zotero attachment works with pdf-xchange viewer addon in the browser.
you know what..it's not worth it, this pdf.js has too many problems.
thanks for your time, sorry if i wasted it.

Following error message is generated, in case it helps :
[JavaScript Error: "this.docShell is null" {file: "chrome://global/content/bindings/browser.xml" line: 323}]
Not Zotero's fault probably, but we all depend on Zotero and pdf.js getting along.

But with latest github version of pdf.js (0.8.105) and Zotero 4.0.6, Firefox does not even attempt to open any pdf files from Zotero. Any help?
Thanks.
did you do more ?
I'm under:
firefox 21.0
osx 10.8.6
zotero 4.0.8
the direct pdf.js seems to work(tm) just fine:
