    Hello,

    Sometimes when I click 'User CP" instead of going to my CP, I get a Open with/ save dialogue box.

    I'm using Firefox!

    So, I can now save usercp.php :confused:

    Some times it works fine and sometimes I get this dialogue!

    Are you behind a proxy or any other sort of traffic shaping device? I haven't seen it happen on my end before and sounds like the MIME type is getting mucked up for you. If the MIME type is something other than html, it could prompt you to save it thinking it's some other type of file.

    No proxy!
    I'm not sure about the MIME type and all..
    Assuming that it is some other type and not HTML, then I must get this dialogue box every time ??

    It just happens once in 8-10 times.
    I think I'll have to manage with It.

    Thanks !:)

    Well it's always set as HTML from the server, that's why I was wondering if you are going through something that might be changing it. Have you tested it from a different computer to see if it's something specific to your computer?

    Oh Okay!
    No. I haven't tried it yet from any other PC.
    Thanks!

    I use Opera :D Probably not a browser issue.

    I will post here if I have the problem again.

    this will happen if the forum is running slow or there are database issues, you get prompted to save whatever page your trying to reach, ucercp.php or showthread.php. its happened to me here and other sites.

    nothing to be overly concerned about.

    And this also happens if you have any download managers enabled (not just the browser), if so, try without a DM.
