I have my resume linked in my home page.
But I found when I host the pdf file on two different storage server, the default behavior when click on the link differs: one directly download the pdf file bug the other preview in a new tab.
the two links are as below:

http://7xocv2.dl1.z0.glb.clouddn.com/doc/Zhao.Kai_ShanghaiUniv.pdf
I have tested on firefox chrome IE that this is not a browser issue.
For some price issue I have to switch to the storage server of which the default behavior is downloading pdf file.
what settings should I have so that click the pdf link then preview instead of downlod?
Additionally, the storage server provide a configure option that can set the "http header", I know little about the web, so can setting a header work, if so, how to ?
I googled it and it seems the content-disposition
argument in http header account for this. But I add content-disposition='inline'
, doesn't help.
if not the browser's issue, then the download one is added programmatically with headers, and the preview one is just putting your file in that folder on the server
