How do I get Firefox to download an effect? I click on the "open this effect in Filter Forge" and I get the following:

"Firefox doesn’t know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (filterforge) isn’t associated with any program or is not allowed in this context."

Here is the info and a link to help you:
Firefox, Files and Content Types

The values you will need:
Content type: filterforge
Application: Filter Forge 4 (or 5 or 6)
File Type: ffxml

Hope this helps.

Thanks, but Firefox doesn't allow me to add file types. I have to download a filter for the program to add it ... and I couldn't d/l the filter.

I reinstalled FF and refreshed the filter page. When I clicked on it, Firefox finally asked me what program I needed to d/l the file. Perhaps reinstalling did the trick.

Re-installing would have been my 2nd suggestion smile;) I don't know what operating system you have, but Windows 8 often causes this kind of problem.

Welcome to Filter Forge. More filters all the time. smile:D
