User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.8; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1 Build ID: 20120713134347 Steps to reproduce: I'm trying to test the HTML5 download attribute for anchor tags (see 'download' attribute at MDN: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/HTML/Element/a). Here is an example test: <a id="exportLink" download="data.jpg" href="http://www.raymondcamden.com/images/meatwork.jpg">Download Data FAKE</a> Actual results: It simply doesn't work. Clicking the link simply loads the jpg in the browser. Expected results: The user should be prompted to save the jpg and the filename should be data.jpg.
