User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030728 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030728 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1 When requesting a file with a content disposition of "attachment", the resulting dialog box names a default application which is chosen on the basis of the URL's extension, rather than the content-type or the filename given in the content-disposition header. The file actually opens in the expected application, though. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Enter http://www.torchbox.com/content_disposition_bug.rm in address bar Actual Results: Dialog box reads: The site has suggested that "plaintext.txt" be handled as an attachment. It is of type text/plain (Text File) and located at: http://www.torchbox.com/ What should Mozilla Firebird do with this file? * Open it with the default application (RealPlayer) * Open it with [Choose...] * Save it to disk Upon choosing "Open it with the default application (RealPlayer)", the file opens in Notepad. Expected Results: The first option in the dialog box should read "Open it with the default application (Notepad)". The HTTP response headers for the above URL include: Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=plaintext.txt; Content-Type: text/plain
