Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 320883

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Peter Klotz]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5

The attached text file is not displayed correctly when downloaded with Firefox 1.5 (webserver is Apache 2.0.52). An empty line appears although none is present in the original file. The problem does not occur when the file is loaded into Firefox with "File|Open File...".

The problems seems to be that character 1024 is 0x0D and character 1025 is 0x0A. If one of the two is changed to a non whitespace character, Firefox displays the file without the empty line.

Opera 9 and IE 6 display the file without the empty line.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Place the attached file on the webserver
2.Download the file with Firefox 1.5
3.An empty line is displayed where none should be
