I've downloaded a number of zip files using Firefox Mobile, first clicking on the "Open" button after clicking on the link to the zip file (it didn't work) , and clicking "Save" and after downloading trying to click "Open" (it didn't work either).

How do I open zip files downloaded with Firefox for Mobile? And where are they stored when saved?

Firefox stores downloaded files in Nokia N900/Documents/ (Use the File Manager App to navigate). For steps to unzip files, check out [This maemo.org thread http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=37133]

Thank you! I found the .zip file in the "Nokia N900/Documents/" folder and was able to open it. I think my problem was that I was too impatient and didn't wait for the folder to finish loading in file manager, as I did open that folder earlier but I couldn't see the file.
