>renaming them with a jpg extension Yes, I did the same on windows >So the issue really was the missing filename hint Or, looking at it another way, the issue was really the browswer needing a file name hint to determine the file type, rather than using the file "magic".
After all, every /other/ browser on every /other/ platform I have used had worked out the files were jpegs, and treated them as such, without needing a hint at all. I've been using *nix since the days of BSD and even Xenix, and spent year on Solaris. None of those systems made assumption about file types from the file extension. I rather thought that was one of Windw's weaknesses, rather than something to be adopted. Anyroad, thanks for your time and I am sure you will think about all this... I am just glad I can use the new tablet to save and re-use images. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1585774 Title: Cannot save.jpg from web page To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/webbrowser-app/+bug/1585774/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
