Summary

Some sites block the ability to view images via a direct link. When you try to open images on such sites, the browser offers to save it. This extension makes JPG, PNG, WEBP, MP4, WEBM and PDF files always open in view mode instead of saving.

The extension is similar to InlineDisposition Reloaded (sets "Content-Disposition" header to inline), but does not cause file download issues (for example, PDF or torrent).

If you have any problems with this extension, please contact me, I will try to fix it.
