--- Comment #14 from Wolfgang Rosenauer
It should, like konqueror and opera, be using the mimetype the server serves the file as.
There is an issue with it which can be taken as a Firefox problem: Firefox uses the mimetype the server provides to figure out the correct application. Then it gets told to open the file with the default application and here it starts to be wrong. Firefox downloads the file and uses gnome_url_show to open the application. gnome_url_show doesn't have any mimetype information from the webserver anymore since it is operated on a local file. I will take that as an issue to mozilla but still I'm not sure if gnome_url_show behaves correctly. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
