Attachment of graphics problems

[Sirotnikov]

It seems that all attachment files that are graphics, are not being sent properly to the browser, and when I try to save any picture that is attached, it defaults to BMP format, and can't be changed to it's real format (gif/jpg).

That is very annoying. It could possibly result from the failure of attachment.php sending TYPE: gif/image or jpeg/image or what ever code it has to send before actually sending the file to the browser.

Speaking of which, I also had problems saving ZIP files from the Civ3 section.

All of these problems are not unique to me, and most people seem to share them.

For the record - I have no such problems with IE5.5 & Win 98SE

I also have this problem.

I don't have any problems saving attatched pictures.

IE6, WinME

I'm having the problem too. (IE6, Win98)
But apparently it isn't a universal problem... So maybe it all comes down too some funny settings then (probably related to MIME types?).

Just to muddy the water - here at home I can't get anything but .bmp for animated .gifs - Damn! IE6, Win98SE

Are we identifying an IE6 problem?? Damn Gatesh*t!

Exactly! The only two other browsers I have are Netscape 4.77 and Opera 6. Netscape can't even display the attached images, and Opera can't even load Apolyton properly!

I'm using IE 5.5 on Windows 2000

I have that problem too. IE6/Win98 IE6/Win95 IE5.5/Nt4 and IE 5.5/Win2k. All of those configs have this problem in my case.

WinNT4-Netscape4.5 -- all attached images and custom avatars not viewable and cannot be captured -- except standard avatars, which are OK (eg in this thread, can only see Grrr's avatar).

WinNT4-IE5.5 -- all images display normally, normal capture/save

iMac-OS9.1 -- all images display and save normally

Markos!

This is really quite serious - can we have some Admin input please?
