Summary19466: JSON export does not work well in Brave
Description

Exporting CSV is a breeze in Brave Browser.

Exporting JSON does not seem possible in Brave Browser.

If JSON forced a "Save as..." dialog like CSV, it would work, but it is as if it set the wrong MIME-type.

The work-around is to use Firefox.

Steps To Reproduce

Responses > Export results > Format > JSON

Click "^Export"

In Brave you get JSON in the browser instead of a "Save as..." dialog. If you press [CTRL-S], Brave tries to re-download the page, which fails.

In Firefox you get JSON in the browser instead of a "Save as..." dialog. If you press [CTRL-S], you can, however, save the json-file and that works.

This is fixed in LimeSurvey 7.0.6: the JSON export now downloads as a file in all browsers.
