Title: Stop Quicktime from playing in browser?
Post by: Beaker on November 25, 2006, 20:14:13 PM
Basically im trying to download files from Afternow.  When i click on a link the "save as..." option doesnt seem to want to play, however if i go to the link rather than flashing up a box asking me if i want to open or download the file F***ing quicktime loads and plays the damn thing.  Ive set it not to and the blood thing still does it!  any ideas?

In Firefox, Tools/options/content on filetypes click manage highlight the filetype you want to download, select change action and select the save to disk option I have done this for pdf files. If you want to go back to automatically playing them ou will have to undo your work though

Mine too ;) Before I worked it out I couldnt save pdf files to disk using it, of course now I have to but I can always delete if I dont want it.
