Bug with prefs.js -> browser.helperApps.neverAsk...

[Martin Gross]

Hi folks,

Using Phoenix 0.4 on a Linux (SuSE) machine, I experience the following which to me seems to be a bug: Image you have a web page containing a link to an MP3 file (could as well be PDF or anything else). When you first click on this link, Phoenix asks you
(a) whether you want to save the file -or- whether you want to open it with any application and
(b) whether you want to have your settings in (a) stored or not ("Always ask ...").

Both choices in (a) work well; so I can ask Phoenix to always open links leading to MP3's using e.g. xmms. When I ask Phoenix to remember my choice in (a): "open it using xmms", it does store the *opposite* of my choice (a) in the preference file prefs.js:
user_pref("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk", "audio%2Fmpeg");

Under Win32, this works correctly. However, the "wrong" line in prefs.js does not appear at all under Windows.

Any ideas on this, either a correct line for prefs.js or anything else?

Thanks & Cheers
Martin Gross
