in thread Minor problem with 'save destination as' for code.

Firefox 3.0.3 win32, here also. I got "Save Link As", and on first click, it asked to save as Download.htm. Then I opened a new tab, and Ctrl+S prompts to save as 718069.pl. If subsequently I try "Save Link As", this time I get 718069.pl. Weird I know. Seems to only happen the very first time, so to test, re-start firefox, and first Download Code link will try to save as Download.htm.

    Oops, it is "Save Link As" in FireFox (it is "Save Target As" in IE).

    Seems to only happen the very first time

    It only sometimes happens the first time for each link. It probably happens the first time if PerlMonks takes too long to respond.
