When I try to go to one of the Module.hs files, e.g. on darcs.haskell.org, it now has type HS and Firefox refuses to display it (and only lets me download it).

I believe those kinds of problem have to do with the MIME-encoding on the server side: The server uses text/x-haskell. For Firefox to display the document inline it probably has to be text/plain. Not sure what the proper fix is, though.
It should probably be fixed in one of the Apache config files. In the HTTP headers from darcs.haskell.org (viewed with the Live HTTP headers extension in FireFox) I'm getting Server: Apache/2.2.3 (Debian) Content-Type: text/x-haskell returned when I request the Map.hs file. For Apache 2.2 there seem to be various solutions. The web admin should probably be looking at these sorts of things http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_mime.html#addtype http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#forcetype http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#defaulttype and maybe rummaging in file httpd.conf Richard.
