website pages wanting to be "saved" by Firefox

[Simon Ives]

I sometimes have this issue with Firefox and the dominos pizza website
where it tries to display the .php rather than the rendered page. When this
happens I use Chromium to access the site and it works fine.

Im not sure if it's an issue with Firefox or the site. I do know, however,
that when Firefox doesnt work Chromium does.
