338930 - File download changes the filename

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Camino Graveyard :: Downloading, defect)

Description

[Päivi Korkeamäki]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.0.3) Gecko/20060427 Camino/1.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.0.3) Gecko/20060427 Camino/1.0.1

If the target filename contains a white space, Camino drops all the characters after the first white space and save the file with the new filename. Mac OS cannot decide the file format which makes it more complicated to work with the file.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find a file with a white space.
2. Download it either by clicking the link or by right click of a mouse and selecting "Download link target"

Actual Results:  
Camino drops all the characters after the first white space and save the file.

Expected Results:  
The file should be saved with the name on the server.

Sorry about the mix up. I couldn't reproduce the bug anywhere else but in the software environment of our own. But in our environment, I could reproduce it in every Mozilla based browser in hand. (Camino / Firefox in Mac OS and Firefox in Windows)

I tried to reproduce the bug with the same attributes of the <a> tag. But it worked as it should.

I have 3 wild guesses:
It has something to do with the SSL. (I could't count that out)
It has something to do with character sets or localization.
There's a bug in our html code.

You need to get your server to quote the filename if the filename contains spaces (the filename part of the content-disposition header).
