200612 - browser clueless about how to open JPEG file attachments

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 183653

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Justin Borosh]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win95; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win95; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312

Click any of the attachments on the sample page provided and you will see this
error.  Any time I click an attachment a window comes up saying "You have chosen
to open a file of type: "JPEG Image" (image/jpeg) ... What should Mozilla do
with this file?"  Obviously Mozilla should open and display the JPG.  There is
no reason to ask this.  And there is no option to click to display it in Mozilla
either.  I was using Mozilla 1.1 before 'upgrading' to this version, and Mozilla
1.1 opens these attachments without any problems or showing this dialog.  IE
opens the attachments successfully as well.  It would be nice if 1.3 knew how to
handle .jpg attachments as well or I will go back to 1.1.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the web page provided above.
2. Click any of the attachments contained within the forum post.


Actual Results:  
A dialog appears asking what to do with .jpg files.  There is no option to
display the .jpg in Mozilla.

Expected Results:  
Display the .jpg file.

this is due to an error in the forum software which looks like its being
actively worked on.
