Openening pdf in iBooks from within Safari

Question

After installing IOS5, I am not able anymore to open a pdf-file, which I opened in the Safari webbrowser,
in IBooks.
In IOS4 I used this a lot, but this does not seem to work anymore!
Anybody having the same trouble?
And even better: anybody having a solution to this?

Answer 1

I have found and tested 2 workarounds for this problem:
1)
Send the pdf as an attachment to an email to yourself.
From within the email app on the iPad2 you can then point to this pdf in the received email,
and open it within iBooks ! (as should have also possible from within Safari ... )
2)
Another, even better workaround:
- install Opera Mini webbrowser on the iPad
- copy URL of the pdf to URL-field of Opera Mini webbrowser
  (for example: arxiv.org/pdf/1110.2260v1)
  and click "GO"
- this loads the requested pdf IN THE SAFARI WEBBROWSER (!!),
  but with a different URL,
  in this example with the URL
  http://global-4-lvs-turing.opera-mini.net/hz47-01/24015/0/-1/arxiv.org/1110.pdf
- Now you open the pdf in iBooks from within Safari as usual !!
Hope this helps, although I would like a better solution,
such that the original functionality of openening documents in iBooks from within Safari is restored !

- installeer Opera Mini (webbrowser)
- kopieer de URL van de pdf in URL veld van Opera Mini en laad de pdf
  (bv arxiv.org/pdf/1110.2260v1)
- toets op "Go", dan wordt de pdf geladen IN DE SAFARI BROWSER !!!!!
   Maar dan wel met een andere URL, in dit voorbeeld met URL
   http://global-4-lvs-turing.opera-mini.net/hz47-01/24015/0/-1/arxiv.org/1110.pdf
- aantikken van het scherm geeft rechtboven in scherm zoals altijd
   de mogelijkheden "Open in iBooks", of "Open Met ...",
   die allebei inderdaad de pdf in iBooks kunnen openen !!!!!
