User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0 Build ID: 20130116073211 Steps to reproduce: Enter the web address: www.nextbuses.mobi (or load the same site, or a page on that site, from a bookmark) This is in 18.0.2 on a motorola defy+ Actual results: I get a notification (random).part has finished downloading and a popup window: "Complete action using Browser HTML Viewer [] Use by default for this action" If I check my downloads folder, the page has been saved as a file, without a .htm or .html extension. If I then rename the file to something.htm, I can open it in my choice of browser, firefox (which now works) etc. Expected results: The page should be rendered in firefox

Feel free to send an email to the web author of the site to tell them that Firefox for Android is a modern browser and for them to recognize that our browser is more than capable of rendering their site.

Thanks Aaron - I have, but I don't hold out much hope - it's a local government / public transport consortium who run the site. I had a quick look through the downloaded file, but don't know enough about html headers to find the giveaway. In the mean time I'll try the UAControl addon. Thanks again Chris

Hi Karl, Apologies you got no response via our front door. We manage this site on behalf of a client. This is now on their backlog which will go into the next sprint planning session to be prioritised / addressed. I did a quick check myself and can see the issue too.

Hi Michael, Thanks a lot. We stay tuned and let us know if we can be in any help during the process. :)

At this stage our client is unwilling to fix the issue, its perceived just too low priority. The issue will go into the next round of reviews in two weeks, be reviewed by the key decision maker, then we should have a final outcome. Sorry this is not good news for you - at least at this stage.

Hi michael, thanks for the quick answer, could you tell us which framework do you use for user agent identification? Because the only issue is just the wrong mime-type which is sent on identifying the user agent string for Firefox OS.

WURL + mods. No matter how small the change it needs client approval.

(In reply to michael cliffe from comment #9) > WURL + mods. No matter how small the change it needs client approval. Michael Cliffe, could you tell us if the client approval is tied to the upgrade of WURFL? License fees? Which version do you currently user?

The issue is still the same and not solved. :/ So I guess no modifications has been done, be update of WURFL or anything else.

More specifically, this is fixed in Fennec 41+ (likely due to adding the Android version in the UA string).
