In our Siebel application we have a screen where in we can select certain criteria and get the report from some 3rd party system. These reports will be displayed in firefox browser.

But in firefox we cant see these reports properly. It displays HTML tags also along with data.

Same works good in IE and chrome.

If you see HTML tags then it sounds that the server is sending the file as text/plain instead of text/html.

You can use the Live Http Headers extension or check this in the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer;Ctrl+Shift+K), either in the Net log or the Network log (you may need to refresh the window).
