Nice code, but no need for this. We'll be looking for the iPhone user agent and redirecting automatically to the original file soon. Also, the link to the original file is going to be preserved, either on our side or on Paul's.


It appears to be a Flash wrapper for PDF that breaks my keyboard shortcuts, scrolling (by either spacebar or mousewheel), zooming, and searching.

Is this an improvement on some platform, like Windows? Could you whitelist those platforms, instead of blacklisting iPhones?
