147405 - Linefeed-conversion UNIX to Windows

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 38121

(SeaMonkey :: Download & File Handling, defect)

Description

[Michael Freund]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.0rc3) Gecko/20020523
BuildID:    2002052306

Mozilla does not do automatic linefeed-conversion from UNIX to Windows (like
Netscape and Internet-Explorer do).

eg. UNIX: LF = 0x0A -> Windows: CRLF = 0x0D 0x0A

-> Downloads from .csv-Data does not work with Access and Excel.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. load any textfile from UNIX-Server
2. Right-Click "Save Page as"
2. the file has UNIX-Linefeed instead of Windows-Linefeeds

Duplicate of '"save as" should convert line breaks depending on platform'
