The PDF handling stuff is related to a mimetype filter. The web server
sends a particular mime type along with each document, and if it's not
something that the browser knows how to deal with directly, it'll
interrogate all of its plugins to see if they want to handle it. When
plugins are registered they provide a list of types they'll handle. See:

Hi,
Can you please how webkit handles a mouse click from a user?
For example, when user clicks an anchor, it will load the web page.
But if the links points to a pdf document, it will load the document
using pdf reader.
Can you please tell me where in the code handles that?
