User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826 I have a link to a M3U file in a local HTML file (file://c:/ ...). The M3U file contains relative paths to MP3 files. When I say "open it with winamp", mozilla COPIES the file to a temp directory and than opens it. However, than winamp cannot find the MP3 files anymore! It should be better, if a link is to a file in the local filesystem, not to make a copy before opening it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a M3U file containing only the name of an MP3 file 2. Create a HTML file containing a link to the M3U file 3. Open the HTML file with MOZILLA and click on the link Actual Results: winamp starts, but has a copy of the file. It cannot find the MP3 file. Expected Results: Open the original M3U file directly with winamp. Microsoft Internet Explorer does it correctly!
