Imagine a Cinema ticket-shop sending you electronic tickets. Because you ordered
two tickets, they send you two email, each with an attachment (.JPG) containing
a ticket you should print to get access. These two emails are different and the
attachments are different (although only slightly).
Firefox is set as the default browser, clicking on the attachment in the first
email has Firefox show the image. Open the second email, clcik attachment and
Firefox does show the *first* one, not the second image...

This is reproducable in both 1.0.6 and 1.0.4 versions. I checked what Outlook
did: Outlook store a copy of the image in the users temporary internet
directory, it does this twice with exactly the same filename. The first file
show a time-stamp: 18:12:11, the second show 18:12:51, size are also different:
48,092 vs. 48,126 bytes. Firefox should reload for two reasons, but doesn't do
this. When I do hit the Reload button, it does show the second image. When I
then clcik on the first image again, the second stays up. Wrong again.

If needed, I kept the two emails, I can sent these over for testing purposes.

Wim van Dommelen.

P.S. I really like Firefox! Keep up!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on the attachments....
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
See elaborate description.

Expected Results:  
Reload the image because both date/time and size of the images are different.

I installed Firefox 1.0.6 from scratch with all defaults to check this. It is
consistent and not depending on themes i.m.h.o.

How do you open the messages with Firefox? Local from .eml file or remote per
webmail?

I've set Firefox as the default browser for .htm, .html, etc. but also for .jpg
files. I run the regular Outlook 2003 client on W2k and from the window showing
this email I just double-click on the attachment. So nothing special i.m.h.o.

Wim.
