The download button in my website does not work in firefox, but it works in chrome. Is it an issue with firefox?
I have a download button for my website. The button works properly in Google Chrome. But instead of downloading the file, firefox opens the file on a new tab. I want firefox to download the file instead of opening it.
Could someone help me with this...

That is likely a problem with the content type that the server sends for this file. If this is text/html or text/plain then Firefox opens th file in a tab.

You can look at this extension to check the HTTP response headers:

What kind of file is it?
You can overcome a browser's natural inclination to display content in a tab by setting a content-disposition:attachment header. The best way to do that depends on your server setup.
