Package: iceweasel Version: 3.0.6-1 Severity: normal When saving automatically generated documents, the save as dialog recognizes the type, probably from the Content-Type HTTP header and displays the filter filter correctly (the list above the Save button that contains, for example, "PDF document" or "All Files.") However, in some cases, NO files at all will be shown in the list of files--just directories, if any, even if there are files that match the filter (in this case, .pdf files).
If you change the file filter to "All Files," then the .pdf files are shown. I believe this happens if the URL for an automatically generated document does not end in .pdf as in the following hypothetical example: https://www.bank.com/statements?account=12345&statement=12345 Perhaps it is also the lack of or a faulty Content-Disposition header field which triggers the problem as well. My guess is that the file filter is built with extension of the URL or the filename parameter of the Content-Disposition header field and in these examples, the extension is absent. When the extension is absent, the extension should be determined from /etc/mime.types given the media type in the Content-Type header field. I don't think this should be the default behavior, however. If an extension is present in a suggested filename, it should be used. By the way, the case in "PDF document" and "All Files" is inconsistent. "All Files" should probably be "All files" according to the HIG: http://library.gnome.org/devel/hig-book/stable/controls-option-menus.html.en -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (600, 'stable'), (80, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.28-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages iceweasel depends on: ii debianutils 2.30 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii fontconfig 2.6.0-3 generic font configuration library ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.6-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.12-1~lenny1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libnspr4-0d 4.7.1-4 NetScape Portable Runtime Library ii libstdc++6 4.3.2-1.1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii procps 1:3.2.7-11 /proc file system utilities ii psmisc 22.6-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii xulrunner-1.9 1.9.0.11-0lenny1 XUL + XPCOM application runner iceweasel recommends no packages.
