Re: [Camino] Why JFIF and Not JPEG?

[Nate Weaver]

Well, *technically* they were always JFIF files. JFIF is the actual 
file format, while JPEG is the name of the image compression format 
(slight difference). JFIF is the standard file format for single JPEG 
images, and as such are usually simply referred to as JPEG files, and 
use the ".jpg" or ".jpeg" extension, instead of ".jfif", which is what 
(i'm assuming) you're seeing here (someone correct me if I'm wrong). If 
you change the extension to ".jpg", do they open in Camino?

I do think that things should be changed so that the files are saved 
with the extension as ".jpg", though.

Hello All,

I have noticed something odd, that is most likely news to me, but

the rest of you.

In older versions on Camino (when it was Chimera) when you saved a 
webpage
that contained JPEG files, it saved the page with it's files in their 
native
format. (JPEG saved as JPEG)

But now in new versions of Camino when you save a webpage that contains
JPEGS it saves them JFIF files. These files can not even be opened in
Camino, only in Mozilla.
I have a couple questions:

1. Why does Camino do this?

2. Is there anyway to stop Camino from doing this?



Thanks,

Steve Miller
