Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 293276

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Administration, defect)

Description

[Todd Strickland]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

When I try to click "install" link under any theme on the firefox theme link I
included, it will prompt me to save to disk as a compressed file instead of
using the theme installation utility incorporated with firefox.  When I click in
the title of the theme, it will take me to the themes dedicated page and I can
then install by clicking the "install now" link/icon.  Shouldn't you make that
an option on the inital page?  I think it would be more professional. How about you?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to
https://addons.mozilla.org/themes/showlist.php?application=firefox&category=Top%20Rated
2.click "install" link under any theme and you will see the ambiguity
3.click the theme title and you are redirected to the functional "install now" link.

Actual Results:  
it allowed 2 methods of downloading the link of which only 1 worked.

Expected Results:  
both install links would call the theme installation module from firefox equally
as described.
