140839 - Mozilla will not download files with long names

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 139360

(SeaMonkey :: Download & File Handling, defect)

Description

[Josh Whitver]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.0.0+)
Gecko/20020428
BuildID:    2002042808

If a file to be downloaded has a long name, Mozilla will choke on it and simply
not download the file.  I haven't tested this exhaustively, but the limit
appears to be in the upper 20's for number of characters (perhaps it's 31...the
old Mac filename limit??).



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to URL above (or any place that has files with long names to download)
2. Click the "Test file with Super Long Name.txt" file
3. Note how Mozilla offers to download it (for some reason appending a .binary
on the end of it...which is another issue altogether)
4. Note how, when clicking "Save" nothing happens.

Actual Results:  Mozilla does not download the file.

Expected Results:  Mozilla should have downloaded the file properly (and not
appended .binary, but again, that's another issue).

Everything appears right using RC1, but the file is never actually saved.
