317591 - Trying to save an image viewed through the RSS component defaults to homepage name

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(MailNews Core :: Feed Reader, defect)

Description

[Corvette Hunt]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; es-AR; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050920 Firefox/1.0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; es-AR; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050920 Firefox/1.0.7

When viewing a page such as the following example:
http://hele.pucp.edu.pe/pucp/pubweb/puwpubli/puwpubli;jsessionid=00008cJJE1KXIqxc3yEEwYRpMzX:10k4gspt2?accion=VerContenido&CodigoDocumento=0000000000058880&indNoticia=1

But viewing it through an RSS feed directly on Thunderbird versión 1.5 (20051025) when you click on an image to save it, instead of showing the actual name of the image to save, it defaults to the page name (in this case: puwpubli.html) - Also, it doesn't remember the last directory it was saved to, it defaults to the desktop.

A workaround is to simply type in a desired name for the graphic in question, and add it's extension (say: graphic1.jpg), and always manually reselect the directory you want to save your data to.

Using:
Thunderbird versión 1.5 (20051025) - Spanish build
Linux Suse 9.2 - Spanish build

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a RSS feed with this url:
http://hele.pucp.edu.pe/pucp/pubweb/puwpubli/puwpubli;jsessionid=00008cJJE1KXIqxc3yEEwYRpMzX:10k4gspt2?accion=VerContenido&CodigoDocumento=0000000000058880&indNoticia=1
2. Open it on Thunderbird
3. Right clic on any image and clic save

Actual Results:  
Shows default directory to save to: Desktop
Shows wrong name for file: puwpubli.htm

Expected Results:  
Show last used directory that was saved to
Show correct name and extension for file: (i.e. graphic.jpg)

Reporter, does the issue still occur in the latest supported 2.0.0.x / Shredder trunk nightlies?

(1.5.0.x is now end-of-life and the latest supported 2.0.0.x is 2.0.0.16)
