I've gotten annoyed with temporary files such as PDFs and JNLP files downloading to the desktop before being opened. So much so that I decided how to find out how to get rid of them...
It seems you have to make the setting using Safari (having just read someone having trouble making PDF open up within the browser itself and not running an external program...)
If you make the 'download folder' setting via Safari (and not via your fav browser) it works, and all temporary files goes there. I have now set it to /tmp (you have to type it into the search box) so that the files are cleared on a reboot.
The nice thing is that Navigator still downloads files to my specified folder on my desktop (set within Navigator)...
Funny, how we have to do it this way. I guess browsers are inheriting properties from the OS X 'system' browser...
