Hello,

It still works for me when I right click on a link and do "Save Link As..." (running Firefox nightly 23.0a1).

I was under the impression that tis was a forum for Firefox MOBILE. This issiu only applies on mobile platform, Android.

The Mobile platform was able to do what BIG FF can; Save link as... but after 2012 nov, the feature was abbanished.

Tomorrow's update will re-add a way to download media files. While a file is playing click and hold and select save.
