Details

the following header is handled. Content-Disposition: attachment;filename=abc.exe or Content-Disposition: inline;filename=abc.exe But the following header cannot be handled Content-Disposition: filename=abc.exe
Hmmm... mscott convinced me that he added this. Seems like it might be broken.

Depends on what downloading code he's using. The code I put in to handle content-disposition explicitly looks for a ';' before the filename=. That was based on my reading of the W3 spec for that header (see ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2616.txt, section 19.5.1). It seems to state that the disposition parm is preceded by a semi-colon. Is filename= without a preceding attachment; or inline; kosher?
possibly a dup of bug 46071
