Firefox automatically opening downloaded content
Firefox automatically opening downloaded content
Is this some kind of sick joke?
All of a sudden you've created an optionless setting that automatically opens downloaded material?
This is the last straw with your dodgy browser that crashes all the time.

Are they PDFs? By default, Firefox will open PDFs in a tab. For servers that don't force a download, they open with their regular web address and are saved in the web content cache. For servers that force a download, they are saved in your downloads folder and then opened in a tab with a file:/// address.
Do you want to change how Firefox handles PDFs? There are a lot of different options, from always using the web content cache to never accepting a forced download (you always get the choice).
If it if some other kind of content that opens automatically, what is it? Does it open in Firefox or some other program?
