Summary MIME types ignored

I am trying to have WebKit open a MIME type of application/x-zope-edit with a particular application (ZopeEditManager). Instead, it just get's downloaded. Using the Defail Apps preferences plugin, I can see that ZopeEditManager is configured to handle that MIME type, and this works correctly in Firefox 3.x.

What is the "Defail Apps preferences plugin"?

A typo is what it is. Default Apps. http://www.rubicode.com/Software/RCDefaultApp/

This sounds unlikely to be a WebKit bug. For unsupported MIME types, WebKit checks if any plug-ins are available to handle the MIME type, and otherwise delegates the handling of them to the host application. I think this bug should probably be closed as INVALID and a new bug filed against Safari at <http://bugreport.apple.com/>.

Mass closing plug-in bugs, as plug-in support has been removed from WebKit. Please comment and/or reopen if this still affects WebKit in some way.
