I set firefox to open a filetype (.SGF) w/ a program but it doesn't, so I set it to save/ask and neither option works, it always opens file link in a new tab.

I've gone into the Options and set the .SGF file to open with Smartgo. It refuses to do that. Clicking on a link to a .SGF file simply opens the file as text in a new tab.

Since this didn't work, I tried to set firefox to download it instead, because then I can use the window's filetype associations to open it. It won't download the file unless I actually right-click and save-as on the link.

This is tedious when viewing lots of these files. I even set it to Ask me after I saw the the Download option didn't work. It doesn't Ask me. What is going on here?

Also I am using firefox 23

EDIT: It seems to be website specific. Some websites will allow me the option to open it in Smartgo, others will just open it in a tab as text. What is causing this discrepancy and can it be surmounted through browser settings?

An example website to showcase the issue is: http://igokisen.web.fc2.com/wr/lg.html clicking on any of these links will not download, open, or ask about what you want to do with the file.

That happens if the server sends the file as text/plain. You can see this if you open "Tools > Page Info > General": Content-Type: text/plain


Files send this way will always open in a tab.
