Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; no-NO; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; no-NO; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7

Downloading any file with spaces in the name causes Mozilla Firebird to choose
only the first part of the name (ie. before the first space) as the "saving"
name, with type "Binary Executable" no matter what type the file really is. 

This didn't happen before the change to use GTK 2.

Changing the filename back to its full name in the "save as" dialog box saves
the file with its full name.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click a link to a file with spaces in the name (fx. "Example file.txt"), or
right-click a link and choose save.
2. All file dialogs ("opening", "save as") use only the first part of the name
by default (fx. if the filename was "Example file.txt", it becomes "Example").

Actual Results:  
Had to manually rename the file (in the "save as" dialog) to its full name.

Expected Results:  
Should have used the full name by default.
Must be just a Linux problem. Works in Win XP 20031116 Firebird/0.7+
