Some images and websites cant open. Firefox ask to save the file.
Well... This is a problem I have had for some time now.. This needs to be fixed. Images doesn't open in firefox. When I click on some images, firefox ask me to save the file or open it in windows. Check here: http://www.fredricz.com/graphics/graphic24.php
Can't open them in firefox. Opera, Safari and Chrome can!
And can't open this website: http://blog.fredricz.com/ Firefox wants to save the index.php file! Why?! Opera, Safari and Chrome can open the website http://blog.fredricz.com/
Thanks.

Hello Frederic.
Yes, this is by design. This happens because Firefox respects the site's (actually, the server's) request that the images be loaded from an external program. Apparently other browsers don't respect that request.
It is an annoyance, yes, but you should ask the site's webmaster to stop that behavior in their site. That's what I do, personally.
So how does he solv this? I got this on my website too..

- NOTE: On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). See this: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/run_as_administrator.htm
- NOTE for IE: Firefox and most other browsers use a Plugin. IE uses an ActiveX version. To install/update the IE ActiveX version, same instructions as above, except use IE to download the ActiveX installer. See: ActiveX

The image files are send as content type application/octet-stream Firefox will always offer to save images as that content type.
- Open in Browser: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/8207
Yes, but I want my visitors to be able to open the pictures in the browser..
You can only do that if the server sends an image as an image type (e.g. image/jpeg or image/png) and not as application/octet-stream Then users can right-click and use "Save Link as" to save the images.
Solved it.
.htaccess-file:
- ForceType application/octet-stream
Changed it to:
ForceType application/octet-stream
