80470 - MIME text/html not handled automatically

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Networking: HTTP, defect)

Description

[db]

On the page at the URL above I sometimes get up a requester asking what to do
with text/html pages (save etc.). It seems to happen at random. If I try to go
to the same page 5 times maybe it works 3 and fails 2...

Thew webpage is a teletext viewer on the internet. You should enter numbers in
the entry field to the left called "Ny Sida" or press numeric links. The start
page seems to work all the time, but changing pages do not work all the time.

This used to work and is something that have broken recently (days or maybe som
weeks).

Cannot reproduce on Win NT (2001-05-12-08, tried shift-reload several times).

WFM with a linux trunk build from this afternoon.  resolving WFM based on prior
comments, and lack of followup.
Reporter, if this still happens for you using a recent nightly build, please
reopen it.
