I don't know if that's a bug in Firefox 3 or not, but I couldn't find anything else about that behaviour.
I generate some PDF document using the FPDF library (http://www.fpdf.org/).
When I click on a link to generate a file, the dialog box asking if I want to open or save. Then I click on "Cancel" and immediatly click on the link again.
If I do that several times, I'm redirected to a page with the source code of the calling page (without the headers).

If I see the source code of that page, I get that :

And the funny thing is, if I wait some seconds between two clicks on the generation link, it work.

I don't know if that's really clear, but if you need some precision, add a comment.

Reproducible: Always

[Matthias Versen [:Matti]]

Looks like bug 470199 (which is basically invalid)

And if you are really sure that this is no server issue you have to attach 2 logs
a) a Mozilla http log : http://www.mozilla.org/projects/netlib/http/http-debugging.html
b) a wireshark log
