When you click on a link to a patch file in bubzilla, the content-disposition is sent as "attachment". This disables the ability of Firefox users to set a default action for that file type. Can this be fixed? A brief explanation of the problem from http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions#Unable_to_set_an_automatic_action In some cases, you may not be able to set an automatic download action. This can occur when a misconfigured web server assigns an incorrect MIME type, such as "application/octet-stream" (shown above in SeaMonkey 1.x) or if the server assigns "Content-Disposition: attachment" to the file download (shown at right in SeaMonkey 1.x). [6] When this happens, the option to always perform the same action will either be "grayed-out" (as shown here in SeaMonkey 1.x) or, in Firefox, selecting the "Do this automatically" option will not seem to have an effect and you will again be asked what to do when you next encounter that file type (see below for related bug reports). There is little you can do in these cases because the problem is at the server end. -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow! NANCY!! Why is at everything RED?! gmail.com
