I used to be able to with older version of firefox. The same bug appears under windows 2000 and Linux, Mandrake 9.1. Code which should display a box so that you can input the name of a file for attachment, does not do so. Screen dumps from Internet explorer and firefox can be seen at http://freon.chem.swin.edu.au/~marg/ieswiftel.png http://freon.chem.swin.edu.au/~marg/firefoxswiftimage2.png You can see that in firefox, much of the code to get the display working ends up in the web-mail input box.

Wow, that's a surprisingly glaring bug for SquirrelMail to have (at least, as of the version I'm testing, 1.4.2, and whatever version your ISP is running). The problem is that the contents of a textarea are PCDATA, character data parsed for markup. Your signature has a </, which a careful program would have escaped to </ before inserting in a textarea, but SquirrelMail just throws it in there, leading to rather... odd results. Luckily, you can use IE, which ignores the fact that textarea's content is PCDATA, to change your < to <, and then things should work fine in both browsers.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01". This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code. While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug (given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more reproduction information if you have it. If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved. Thank you for your help in this matter.
