317449 - Failure to properly handle download filenames that include a space in front of the file name extension

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 221028

(Toolkit :: Downloads API, defect)

Description

[hermann_borotschnig]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050919 Firefox/1.0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050919 Firefox/1.0.7

When downloading a file whose filename is "CN1636347A .pdf"(including the space)  the browser suggests CN1636347A without extension "pdf", see steps to reproduce the problem below. This does not happen with the Internet Explorer which can handle the admittedly weird filename "CN1636347A .pdf"


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open http://v3.espacenet.com/origdoc?DB=EPODOC&IDX=CN1636347&F=0&QPN=CN1636347
2. click on "save full document"
3. type in the required word to start the download



Actual Results:  
The browser then suggests the following filename CN1636347A for the download


Expected Results:  
This filename is wrong. The right filename is "CN1636347A .pdf"(including the space) 
and apparently the space in the name has confused the browser.

That the right filename is "CN1636347A .pdf" might be found out by redoing the 3 steps in the Internet Explorer. It has also been confirmed to me by the espacenet service hotline.
