320682 - in "file" type of upload forms, unicode characters in filename converts to underscore "_"

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 228437

(Firefox :: File Handling, defect)

Description

[omid rad]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5

when i create a form to upload a file, when you click browse and select a file, if the filename contains unicode characters, it converts to "_" character. (without submit)

if you replace "_" character with the filename yourself, it replace unicode characters and upload the underscored filename (with zero length size).

i tested IE in the same PC and it worked fine, and tested exactly my firefox in another PC and it worked fine too!

Reproducible: Always




- I have windows XP, new installed firefox 1.5.
- I remove firefox profile and last firefox directory before installing this version.
