User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2) Gecko/20021202 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2) Gecko/20021202 When clicking on a document to open, mozilla opens a blank window and I get prompted to save or open the file with an application. This should automatically open the appropriate application. The problem seems to be associated with the mime type being application/x-octet-stream but the different file types being pdf, doc or whatever. The HREF may explain it better. <a href="https://jobs.nsw.gov.au/DownloadFile.asp?DocumentId=19883&FileName=application form.pdf" target="_blank">application form.pdf</a> Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to URL 2. Click on any file in the Information Package area 3. Actual Results: As desribed in detail section Expected Results: Opened my pdf application or office application depending on the file clicked on.
