Vorbis - Dec 2002 - Mozilla nacking up to peek inside a vorbis file

Just been doing some simple phrases for Phoenix Online, uploaded the samples in
q1 & q3 vorbis- when i click on the links in Mozilla, it opens the file in
the window, displaying the files as text.
How could i change the html file i've linked them on so that when people
click on the links, this won't happen?

code that works in Mozilla & IE would be handy

(its also worth noting that in Mozilla, you dont get that irritating ad window
at the bottom of the page)

You can't.  You need to change teh mimetypes that the server is
returning.  They need to be set to application/x-ogg.

It's not HTML problem, the server returns wrong Content-Type header
(text/plain innstead of eg. application/octet-stream)

You have to fix your webserver configuration. If you use Apache:

In your mime.types file:

application/x-ogg               ogg

Or, if you use MIME magic, in your magic file:

0       string          OggS            application/x-ogg

If you can't do that, it's up to the clients to add the content type
application/x-ogg to their browsers and have it open a download dialogue
or so. Or, just ask your ISP to do this. While you're at it, in
httpd.conf:

AddDescription "Ogg Multimedia" .ogg

You should be able to add a .htaccess file containing:
AddType application/x-ogg .ogg
