Modify Content-Type
Change the response content type to force documents to open in or outside the browser window or in a special view mode (PDF, XML...)
This extension is in beta state, please send feedback on your experiences and wishes!
'Modify Content-Type' allows manipulation of the Content-Type and Content-Disposition HTTP header fields of incoming documents. This may be helpful if you like to force the browser to either show a document inside the browser window or to offer it as a download. It also can be used to override unknown mime types sent by misconfigured servers. Just replace them by f.e. 'application/pdf' or 'application/xml' and Chrome will know how to show the document.
Permissions:
- 'Access your data on all websites': required to get access to the http headers of requested documents.
Updates:
- 0.2
-- added support for multiple rules per URL

I had hopes it worked for me but I tried multiples cases and it didn't
Works. Just be sure you know you regexes, and everything that needs to be escaped (like '+'), or the rule won't match.
Works as expected.

I couldn't not get it to match on any filter expression. Tested my regex and it was valid. It just refused to change the content type. 🤷♂️

Very useful Kudos!

For experts only, minimal documentation. Would be more useful if it had a feature to snoop headers and inform you of a download's mime type.

This does not seem to modify content type when the content is displayed in an <embed> tag generated on the fly.

Only extension available that was able to render a PDF in browser. All I had to do was change octet-stream to pdf (mime-type) and attachment to inline.

Extension works great but it is no longer supported by latest version of Chrome Browser (72). Any tips on getting this working ?

Works like a charm (not when opening a file directly, but works through a web server). I am using it to view txt files as HTML.

very useful for filter larger xml files to be opened from chrome!!
This is perfect for fixing over-engineered web applications like JIRA and Confluence that force your browser to download content that could easily be displayed inline.

I added a simple rule to change all image/png to Disposition: inline. No more stupid image downloads!

Kinda sad I have to download an add-on to do something the browser should be able to do on it's own. Thanks for making this available to correct yet another one of Chrome's pitfalls. The instructions could be a lot better to make this a lot easier to use.
