I've noticed recently that when I print a wrapper, that information is getting downloaded onto my computer.  A while ago, I could click "print wrapper" and it would pop up within PBS and not get downloaded onto my computer.

Is there a way to print the wrapper w/o downloading a file?

You may be able to use the backup wrapper and not download - I can't remember since I haven't used it in a while, but I am thinking it doesn't download...

When it gives you the choice of Open or Save, choose Open.  This just opens it instead of saving the file to your computer.  Ha.. at least I think so... I always choose Open... but who knows.. it could be squirreling it away some where on my machine, but I haven't noticed that being the case.

It does not download to my computer. I just click "open".  and nothing goes to my hard disk.

Okay, thanks.  I just liked the old way better b/c it was less clicks, too!

Are you using a different browser, or did you change your browser settings?  When I am using IE, I get the download message, but not with my other browsers (Firefox, for example.)
