How do you configure firefox to open an application without prompting the user?
- by Peter
I've got a serverside app that send down a custom mime-type file "application/x-optibase".
Firefox prompt user user to save or open the file and if the user clicks open the correct application launches so I believe I have mimeType.rdf configured correctly
I've gone into about:config and set
browser.helperApps.neverAsk.openFile to application/x-optibase
and
browser.helpApps.alwaysAsk.force to false
According to the minimal documentation out there this should enable the application to automatically open when the user downloads the file but it doesn't seem to work.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
