Hey all,

For the most part, OWB does a superb job handling Google Docs. I was able to work on a pretty sizable project last night without any real hiccups. EXCEPT: I can't upload files to Google Docs.

Every time it says "Server Rejected" even though they are legitimate files (.pdf). Any ideas why this is happening? Could it be an easy fix?

I know this issue, but i've no idea why it happens (and it seems it happens/has happened for other browsers as well, looking at their support page).

There's a way to workaround it (at least it worked at some point): you mail the file to your gmail account, and then gmail can let you open the file in googledocs.

File upload works best with spoof as Firefox 2.0 Windows. With that spoofing upload works here. Other browser IDs usually fail.

Ah, good to know. I had tried most of the others and it failed miserably, indeed.

> good to know.

I just remember that we had both your and Zylesea's hints very close to each other in a discussion:
