Firefox Apolyton Download Issues

[Atahualpa]

Whenever I download a file with spaces in its name from apolyton, it truncates all of the name after the first space and puts no extension to the name.

So when I download:

Blaha of the Romans 221 B.C.sav

then this will be downloaded to: Blaha and I manually have to add the ".sav" extension.

I have developed some php code that will do around this (mainly by replacing spaces with underscores).

Probably Markos could hack something like this into the forum?

<?php
$wFile = $_GET["file"];
if (!$wFile) exit;

$fname = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]."/".$wFile;

preg_match("/.*(\..*)$/", $fname, $fname_ext);
switch($fname_ext)
{
    case ".jpg":
        $content_type = "image/jpeg";
        break;
    case ".zip":
        $content_type = "application/zip";
        break;
    case ".sav":
        $content_type = "application/savegame";
        break;
    default:
        $content_type = "";
}

$file = fopen($fname,"rb");  // open image for reading
if (!$file)
{
    echo "Error: File does not exist";
    exit;
}
$fsize = filesize($fname);

if ($content_type != "")
    header("Content-Type: ".$content_type);
if (preg_match("#Firefox#i",$_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"]))
{
    $wFile = str_replace(" ","_",$wFile);
}
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".$wFile);
header("Content-Length: ".$fsize);

fpassthru($file);
fclose($file)
?>

Don't ask me why it puts an extra linebreak in every line...
Probably another thing Markos could quick-fix

fixed (without your code, but thanks anway )

Well, this was one of the reasons for what I stop using Firefox

Anyway, now I'm using Maxthon (formerly MyIE2) and I'm happy

[MarkG]

did you report the issue?

[Atahualpa]

good work
you even managed to preserve the spaces, how did you do that?

[vovan]

Ooh, sweet. This has been bugging me for a while, but I never reported it. Thanks Mark!

I think I told you about it. Said that you didn't have the filename in quotes, and the Firefox didn't like that

My quess: Quote the filename string, it will at least work.

[DrGerry]

Well... I didn't report it. I just change my navigator

I could've really come to that solution for myself

A 4-letter word starts with "n" and ends with "b" springs into my head.
