[Bug 856130] [NEW] googledocs block doesnt like link from google docs

 

Public bug reported:

I was wondering if the GoogleApps block type supports the google viewer for embedding views of PDFs?
e.g. this one: 
https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B9K03PfvoQBFYzI4NDk4OGUtMTkwNC00YmQwLTkzZjMtNWU4YTQzZTk5YTgy&hl=en

I would like the PDF to show up in Mahara, but when I put this URL in it
simply doesn’t show.

Also the normal GoogleDocs block is broken because the URL google
provides is BROKEN!

e.g. this: https://docs.google.com/a//document/pub?id=1BWGRmw6V8y7vkPPzOaJPh9EaCFztn7PhHEHpKfrCM0o
should be https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1BWGRmw6V8y7vkPPzOaJPh9EaCFztn7PhHEHpKfrCM0o
(no “a/” )

mahara 1.4.0
Windows XP SP 2
firefox 6.0.2

Cheers,
Shane.
