Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: File Handling, defect)

Description

[Lasse Raty]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; fi; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; fi; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6

My html-file has links to folder with name containing scandinavian characters (for example: päivitysversio/example.html).  In this situation Firefox does not open file. If I change foldername to paivitysversio there is no problem. Also problem does not exist in Firefox 1.5. This is very annoinying, because we have commercial html-application and if our customers use newest Firefox, they can't use our product. I have not tested if it works or not versions between 1.5 and 2.0.0.6.
