1199888 - save multiple images from media info on HDD overwrites images with same file name instead of creating additional file names

Status: NEW

(SeaMonkey :: Page Info, defect)

Description

[Johannes Leushuis]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:36.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/36.0 SeaMonkey/2.33.1
Build ID: 20150321194901

Steps to reproduce:

surf to http://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=chi.26610513;view=1up;seq=7
scroll down in the book to load and see some pages
choose from the menu view, page info
hit the media tab
sort on size or alternate text to get the images of pages listed first
select more than one image to be saved
click save as...
select a directory and click on ok


Actual results:

all images are saved under the same name and overwrite each other


Expected results:

images should have been saved under different names

Firefox also does this wrong

Seamonkey has a system of choosing alternative local file names for images in the images map when saving a web page complete with images and the local names of images (retrieved from possible different websites or local directories) collide. Perhaps this code can be used.

Perhaps the "alternate text" field ("image of page 2" etc.) can be used in case of file name conflict.

REPRODUCIBLE with  German SeaMonkey 2.38b1  (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:41.0)  Gecko/20100101 Firefox/41.0 Build 20150904215228  (Classic Theme) on German WIN7 64bit

a) Also reproducible with FF 39.0, so CORE
b) I see this one as an enhancement request
c) I did not find DUPs with <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&remaction=run&namedcmd=DUPs1199888&sharer_id=41036&list_id=12547776>
