With Mozilla 1.2 I could display text/plain data stream in the brower. Now w/
Mozilla 1.3 I always get a dialogbox asking me what to do w/ the stream. Use
default application opens my prefered text editor. What do I need to do to let
Mozilla display the text as before?

Thanks, Jens

Reporter: It is hard to figure out what is going wrong without a test case.

Mozilla should render all text/plain documents.
Do you get the same problem with http://www.mversen.de/mozilla/commands.txt ?

Are you sending "Content-Disposition: attachment" or something like that?
