Downloading Documents with Joomla Explorer in Firefox

Hello All,

I've got a little problem with downloading documents with the Joomla Explorer using Firefox.
Error_Joomla_Explorer.png
Error_Joomla_Explorer.png (44.96 KiB) Viewed 2104 times
For some reason Firefox thinks this is a html document. And if I choose OK it will open in MS Word, but then .htm is added to the filename.
And if I download a Excel file, it will also open in MS Word, because Firefox wants to open .htm files in MS Word.

Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?


Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Erik

With chrome goes right ?
Which joomla explorer are you using ( in combination with what joomla version )
Which firefox version are you using ? have you tried in other computer ?

Yes in Chrome or Internet Explorer it works fine.
I'm using Joomla version 3.6.2 and Explorer version 2.0.3
The version of Firefox I use is 49.0.1. The IT-department wants everybody to use Firefox, so switching is browser isn't preferable.
Yes I checked with some collegues if they have the same problem. I first thought it might have something to do with the MIME-types config from Apache, but that seems OK. And I did some searching on the internet, but I couldn't find anything useful.


Best regards,


Erik

I have checked and my first impression is that we might have a bug in our side, probably we are not injecting the correctly mime type. We will investigate it.
