User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1 This might not be a real bug, but when I try to HTTP download a file from the web that has a space or underscore in the filename, the Save As dialog only puts the first word into the default filename when I save on my C: drive. I do not know if this might be due to non-RFC compliant web servers, but I have noticed it. Primary website of occurrence is on an intranet, so I cannot give URL. Yahoo Briefcase used to have this problem, but now they seem to insert "+" characters. That also seems like an unsatisfactory solution, but again I am not sure if this is unique to Mozilla/Firefox, or whether the same problem would occur in IE. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upload a file to a web service that allows you to POST files. The file's name should include spaces and/or underscores. 2. Download the file using Save Link As. Actual Results: The filename shown in the Save As dialog will only include the first "word" of the filename, and if you press Enter, that will be the saved filename. Expected Results: Save the filename as recorded on the web service, including words after the first space/underscore.
