Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:15.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/15.0
Build ID: 20120821170930

Steps to reproduce:

I've tested this several times: When downloading files that contains s p a c e s all words in the filename exept the first word is ignored


Actual results:

The file got saved as "send.pdf"


Expected results:

It should have been saved as "send email via intranet.pdf"
I know this because I uploaded the file to the server as "send email via intranet.pdf"

In order to successfully download a file and get it to be saved with original filename, the filename must be concatonated with either - dash or _ underscore (or the filenameCouldBeWrittenLikeThis..)
It's not a good description of the minor bug I have given, but it is as simple as:
Try to download a file named e.g.: "file name.txt" => It will be saved to local drive as "file.txt"

Small, but irritating bug..
Examples, always provide examples in bug reports and in this case an example URL.
Summary: When downloading a file (e.g. "this is a file.pdf") the filename opted to save as spells only the first word in the file (e.g. this.pdf). => firefox no longer handles filedownloads well unless the filename is some_how_merged-with_underscore-or-dash.pdf :) → Filename is cut on the first space

It's a dupe of bug 773542 and read especially the comment https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773542#c5 
It looks like your application doesn't follow the specs.

not enough information to dupe, that's the reason why I ask for an example to see the content-disposition header if one is send.
