Need help with opening applications in Netscape 7.2 for linux


I would like to know how I can make netscape open files with the proper application, the reason why I am asking this is that I have tried opening PDF files and it always tells me that it does not know what to do with those files and that if I want to save them to my hard drive.

I dont want to save the files to my hard drive all I want to do is look at them like you can do on Firefox. How can I make Netscape version 7.2 do this?????

Thanks,

You should be able to tell NS when it prompts for action to always use a default app.
