Firefox has a download folder pre-defined, and when you tell it to save, it
simply saves there as opposed to always asking like IE does....there's
nothing wrong with the Firefox behavior, it's just different than IE.

Thanks, LJ and Candace,

I was wrong about the download.  I was in FireFox and nothing seemed to be
happening.  I tried IE and it asked me where I wanted to put the download,
and I said the Desktop.  When I checked the desktop I found the documents
that I had tried to download from FireFox.  Apparently, FireFox just assumes
that you want it on the desktop and puts it there without even telling you
that it did so.  Also IE did display the document when I picked that.  So it
must be a FireFox problem.

I'll tell our users to use IE if they need to download attachments.

Thanks again,

Dwayne

In Mid-Tier are you getting that annoying 'banner' in IE that makes you
click it and tell it 'yes I wanted to actually download that file'?....if
so, that's what's causing your issues....to fix that we added our Remedy
server to the trusted server list (which bypasses that safety net) and no
longer have the problem you describe :)

Dear List,

We have forms with attachments that open fine in the WUT.  But in Mid Tier
if we click on "Display" we get a blank white window, and if we click "Save
to Disk" nothing happens.

What are we doing wrong?
