Steps: 1) Make sure you do a fresh launch of Camino. 2) When opening this url the .mov file is downloaded instead of shown inline. http://movies.apple.com/movies/wb/batman_begins/batman_begins-tlr_320.mov 3) When going to a webpage that contains a .mov file will act normal. http://www.apple.com/trailers/wb/batman_begins/trailer/medium.html 4) When trying again to click on the direct .mov link the movie will load inline.

This bug first appeared in the 20041203 NB, the 20041202 NB works as it should.

OK well, this got fixed by trashing the plugin registry file. What shall I do.

Hm Ok this issue stretches further then I expected. The problem is will all plugin content. It seems as if Camino isn't aware it can open plugin related files itself and instead downloads them. This all gets fixed as soon as one of the plugin files is loaded within a webpage. This is a Major issue.

I've seen this before, though I didn't know that it happened no matter what before viewing plugins inline!

Upgrading to Core as FF has the exact same issue.

Adding some plugin file links so people can test. http://dnmw.raggers.net/prijslijst/prijslijst.pdf http://www.alv3n.com/esc/site.swf http://movies.apple.com/movies/wb/batman_begins/batman_begins-tlr_320.mov

If it's a core thing, then would this be a dupe/related to FF bug 273785?

1.8a6 is already finished up.

(In reply to comment #7) > If it's a core thing, then would this be a dupe/related to FF bug 273785? Looks like a dup, but 273785 contains no details. I guess it's best to keep this one live.

From what I can understand, firefox fails to load the plugins information on startup. Result a) This bug; since firefox doesn't have any information on plugins, it treats the .pdf, .swf, etc. files as ordinary downloadable files b) Bug 273785; empty plugins dialog If you go to about:plugins, firefox will load the info and will correctly deal with the files listed above.

I've looked at CVS changes during the regression period, and can see only 2 suspicious changes: some changes to nsStandardUrl that may have changed that way that URL comparisons work, and some packaging changes.

does this happen on win32 or linux, or just mac?

hard to say as the other bug lacks details, but assuming this is indeed a dupe of bug 273785, then it's win32 and linux as well as mac.

This is really just a dup of 273785. There's no separate issue. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 273785 ***
