Then the preference I first mentioned (in Helper Applications) is
over-riding that setting. You really should check to see what
the
settings are for zip files.
Ed, in my Linux set-up, I have "Always ask" selected for Bzip
archive,
Gzip archive and Zip archive file.
I expect the settings are the same for Win7, but will actually
check
tomorrow.
Tonight I'm on Win7 using SM2.29b1 (I've already d/l'ed b2) and,
as I
suspected...
1. At Edit - Preferences - Browser - Downloads, I have "Always
ask me
where to save files" selected, and,
2. At Edit - Preferences - Browser - Helper Applications I have
Bzip
archive, Gzip archive and Zip archive file types set to "Always
Ask".
Just in case, you know, you never know, I'll set Edit -
Preferences -
Browser - Downloads to the other setting, close SM, and then
tomorrow
I'll re-download Linux SM2.29b2 and hope it goes to the Download
folder,
then I'll reset to the "Always Ask" setting, re-boot SM and try
again.
;-(
Here I am, having re-boot SM and downloaded Linux SM2.29b2 again.
This
time I had SM set up to save Downloads to the Download folder,
which I
did .... *and* the Download Manager opened up, as it should, to
show me
the downloads progress.
Now I'll re-set to "Always Ask" and see what happens. :-)
Re-boot SM, went to
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/releases/2.29b2/contrib/
and, sure enough, with the "Always Ask ...." pre-selected, I *did
not*
get the second screen asking where I wanted to save the file, *nor*
did the Download Manager open up!!
Ho! Hmm!! Is there anyone else here that uses both Windows7 (WOW64)
and Linux (x86_64) and is willing to try downloading the Linux
version
using their Windows7 version?? Q, maybe??
I had done this with my windows 7 pro 32 bits - User agent:
Mozilla/5.0
(Windows NT 6.1; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0 SeaMonkey/2.26.1
and i downloaded
seamonkey-2.29b2.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2
<http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/releases/2.29b2/contrib/seamonkey-2.29b2.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2>
with a single click, and i have the choice of the download directory.
Sorry, Ray, just to make it absolutely clear to me,
1. At Edit_>Preferences->Browser->Downloads, under "When saving a
file" do you have "Always ask me ...." selected, and,
YES
2. When then clicking on the file link above, do you mean you got the
small window giving you the option to "Open with ....." or to "Save
File", and then selecting "Save File", you get another small screen
asking where on your hard disk you want to save the file??
YES, and then YES also.
Well, why isn't my system doing that??? Grrr!! :-(
Thanks for trying, Ray
If your problem is not reproductible by other people ... you cannot
expect a solution by creating a bug report.
