Downloads always saving

Firefox Installation and updates

On firefox, I have my settings for downloads set to "always ask"

When I click on an attachment on webmail it asks me to "open" or "download".

When I click "open", it still saves the PDF to my desktop.

How do I get it to stop saving things I open?
