There is an usefull functionality in the mozilla acroread plugin which
allows to pass parameters to a PDF URL from a web page's links.

In example when you want to open a pdf file at a specific page, it is
possible to use this URL:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open_parameters.pdf#page=8
(see the anchor #page=8)

I wasn't able to make works the above url in firefox with gpdf/evince
pdf viewer. Did I miss something, and if not, may you tell me the way
to propose the implementation of such functionnalities ?

Hi,

This sounds very reasonable. Evince does currently not have a real
browser plugin (but it can be used as such with mozplugger I think) but
you can still request this as a future feature.

See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=168933 for a bug tracking
the development of a browser plugin. You can add a comment there or file
it as a separate request.
