    Browser form not opening in browser?

    I know this has been asked already, but wasn't able to find the answer yet. I have done some basic checks to make sure my form is a browser form, but for some reason clicking on the Document Library's "Add document" button still opens the InfoPath form in a separate InfoPath instance instead of the browser. Any ideas on how to make the "New" link open in the browser? Interesting note: right after I publish, InfoPath gives me the option to open the form, and when I click that it does indeed open in the browser, so maybe this is just a problem with the document library it is published to.

    Re: Browser form not opening in browser?

    My mistake, as I suspected the library wasn't configured correctly. The only reason for this is because I am transferring the form to a new library in a new environment, so it was configured properly before but I forgot to enable one setting in the new environment:

    1. Go to the Form Library's settings in SP 2010
    2. Click Advanced Settings.
    3. Find " Default open behavior for browser-enabled documents:", select the "Open in browser" option.
    4. Problem fixed :)
