Firefox > Tools > Optiosn > Application
- Search for "Document" and choose the option which you want...
Firefox gives preview for pdf and image files. not for document oriented file types.
You must go in setting...search the tab Application(like this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/gallery/image/6930 ) and then change the action for word documents..get it?

Thanks for your response... But As i said, I have tried with other website on the same browser, there it is opening word document in native program. Also the above mentioned options have been tried earlier.
I have some questions related to this? How is this href link is behaving differently opening in browser for mozilla only. Technically, Can we make it open it native program only? If so, then how?
Could you provide the link
Jaya, i am unable to share that link, it is a secure document. It cannot be accessed without log-in to the application.
it direct link
<a href="url/document_name.doc">document link</a>with doc type
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
If you need other information..i can provide but have to follow confidentiality...

The behavior of such documents usually depends on with which MIME type the server sends the file.
So you can check out the server configuration.
Another observation is this link working fine in chrome and IE 8 and IE10
