Download Content link mangling filename

[csiege]

When selecting the "Download Content" link from a file detail page, the filename is mangled resulting in the filetype not being recognized and the filename just being trashed.

Can't seem to find how to specify a different behavior.

the filename ends up getting changed to soemthing like:

=_ISO-8859-1_Q_originalfilename.doc_

This may be something simple, but I can't get it. 😐

Anyone else have this problem?  Some configuration issue?

thanks.

This might seem a strange question, but what browser are you using to download the content? For attached content, the download servlet encodes the filename using the ISO-8859-1 standard (to allow encoding of UTF-8 characters etc.) and this works fine on all the browsers and systems we've tested. This is a standard well used and understood by modern browers.

Thanks,

You questions is right on target.  I risk getting flamed for this, but I was running IE7b2.  🙂

Tested with firefox and all is fine.  Thanks for this!
Hope it might be of some use to know this is the case in IE7.
