Description (last modified by simon)

PDF downloads from Oxford Journals currently download the PDF to the desktop instead of attaching it to an item (at least on my Mac), because Oxford Journals returns an improper HTTP HEAD response:

HEAD /cgi/reprint/19/6/635.pdf HTTP/1.0
Host: her.oxfordjournals.org

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Tue, 19 Dec 2006 23:55:17 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) DAV/1.0.3 ApacheJServ/1.1.2
Content-Length: 0

Connection: close
Content-Type: text/html

Is there anything we can do about this?
