User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008121622 Ubuntu/8.10 (intrepid) Firefox/3.0.5 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008121622 Ubuntu/8.10 (intrepid) Firefox/3.0.5 On a form file selection widget, it is impossible to clear the file once one has been selected. This means if you are submitting a form, and had chosen a file to upload, but decided not upload anything, it is impossible to do so without closing and re-opening the entire page and loosing all form data. I have verified this on both Ubuntu 8.10 and Windows XP SP2, Firefox version 3.0.5 on both. I also verified that IE7 does have have this problem, but did not check Opera or Chrome. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1) Go to the url provided (2shared.com) 2) Select a file in the file selector 3) Try to remove the selected file so nothing is uploaded Actual Results: You cannot clear the file from the file selector without clearing all form elements that might exist. Expected Results: I would expect to be able to select "no file" again after a file has already been selected.
Dang it... I meant to say IE7 does **not** have this problem. Sorry for the typo.
