Volodymyr Sobotovich updated WICKET-1115:
-----------------------------------------

    Description: 
When a user tries to download a file with its name consisting of non-ASCII 
characters browsers don't display the name correctly in download dialog box. To 
fix the problem the proper encoding must be applied to the file name. IE 
expects URL-encoding to be used and Firefox Q- or Base4. That's why it's 
necessary to detect user's browser type and use the appropriate codec. Codecs 
were borrowed from commons-codec library.

This fix works IE6 and FF2. When I tested it in IE7 a discovered that a few 
starting characters are displayed incorrectly. I mean that IE7 must use some 
variation of URL encoding and that's why this patch must be patched more a 
little:)
