I did that Bob, and on loading it, was exactly back at the page with the
download button on it. But see a reply I posted 5 minutes ago, I got it
sorted because iceweasal did in fact dl 4 copies of the .pdf before it
hung each time. So thanks to okular I now have a paper copy in the file
cabinet. Which was the point of this exersize. ;-)
