Hi, Searching for a good plugin to hear some webradio I've installed mplayer plugin, it works fine, but now it handles ALL media files, I would like to use it only for embedded media, and use the old open with / save dialog for standard links (for example clicking on www.foo.com/bar.wmv) is there a way to make mplayerplug-in behave in this way? Cheers Ra1n |

Ra1n, Nope..., but you could always right click on it and select "Save As..."

Ra1n, The "feature" you are seeing is caused by the website marking the mimetype= =20 wrong, I have seen this on several sites and since it works with windows th= ey=20 won't fix it, even though it is wrong. Firefox seems to still have the bug= =20 in it, if the mimetype is text/plain that it does not look at the file=20 extension of the file being downloaded.

Ra1n, That is also caused by setting the wrong mimetype, usually to text/html Kevin On Monday 31 January 2005 06:58 am, ra1n wrote: > Kevin DeKorte wrote: > >Ra1n, > > > >The "feature" you are seeing is caused by the website marking the mimetype > >wrong, I have seen this on several sites and since it works with windows > > they won't fix it, even though it is wrong.
