If I upload a pdf file via html form (<input type="file"/>), firefox sends its content-type as 'text/html' instead of 'application/pdf'.
Some web applications need to detect content-type of an uploaded file to check if it's an 'uploadable type' or not and this bug makes firefox unusable for those applications.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a php script.
<html><head><title></title></head>
<body>
<?php
if(!empty($_FILES['upfile']['name'])){
echo "type = " . $_FILES['upfile']['type'] . "<br>";
}
?>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" method="post">
<input type="file" name="upfile" size="30">
<input type="submit" value="Upload">
</form>
</body>
</html>
2. Put the php script onto a server and load it.
3. Select a pdf file and press 'upload'. Content-type of the uploaded file will be displayed above the form.
Actual Results:
'type = text/html' is displayed.
Expected Results:
'type = application/pdf' is displayed.
For other file types such as png, gif and jpg, the content-type is correctly sent.
Sorry, deleting the profile folder solved the problem.

No need to be sorry, it was the code that messed up your profile, not you.
