How do I view a pdf file on firefox without having to save it on your laptop?

I've accidentally ticked the box for 'automatically do the same in the future' (or something like that) when I was downloading and saving a pdf file from the internet and now Firefox wants to save every pdf file I just want to see online and doesn't give me the option to just view it - how do I reverse this change?
