Description David Kilzer (:ddkilzer) 2007-08-04 09:58:17 PDT
* SUMMARY
Clicking on a link that returns a text/plain document is always downloaded.  There is no way to view it in the browser.

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch Safari/WebKit.
2. Click on a text/plain link.

* EXPECTED RESULTS
The text/plain document should be viewed within the browser.

* ACTUAL RESULTS
The text/plain document is always downloaded.

* REGRESSION
This is a regression from shipping Safari 2.0.4 (419.3) with original WebKit, as well as the Safari 3 Public Beta v. 3.0.3 (522.12.1).

* NOTES
Probably regressed in r24866, the fix for Bug 14824.

This rebroke http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14824

Granted, I did screw up the original fix, but this isn't the right fix - I'll explore the reasons why in http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14824
