opening a page with the address <http://www.stahlrohr.com/wap.wml> causes
mozilla to ask for an application to display the file at
<http://www.stahlrohr.com/wap.wml>, choosing mozilla itself to display this type
of information causes mozilla to download the file from
<http://www.stahlrohr.com/wap.wml> to your download folder (eg
<file:///Users/username/download folder/wap.wml>) and opening a new window with
the file from your download folder <file:///Users/username/download
folder/wap.wml> saving the file again (with the addition -1 in the filename (eg
...wap-1.wml, wap-1-1.wml, and so on) and opening another window, saving the
file and so on.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. goto http://www.stahlrohr.com/wap.wml
2. choose mozilla as application to display the information
Actual Results:
the downloaded file is being opened in a new window, saved again, the newly
saved file is being opened in a new window and so on
Expected Results:
nothing? ...the ability to choose mozilla itself to display something should be
disabled (in this case?).

Mozilla can't display this type of file : [text/vnd.wap.wml]
The file open loop should not happen but this is a dupe (AFAIK)
THe issue that Mozilla can't open text/* is bug 57342

matti:
> The file open loop should not happen
I disagree... it's exactly what the user asked for. that said, we have a bug to
disallow setting mozilla itself as a helper application. reading comment 0, the
request here seems to just be to not allow setting mozilla as helper app, so
duping to the other bug...
