Why is my binary file not downloaded, but shown on the screen?..

Answer / guest

Actually, the browser has downloaded the document, it is
just treating it as a plain text file. This is because the
server said it was a plain text file. To get the file in the
helper application (or plug-in), you will have to configure
the server to send out the right MIME type, and the browser
to start the appropriate helper application for files with
that MIME type.
