"manage_upload" tries to set the content type. If it gets a "FileUpload" instance as argument, then this instance contains (usually) the content type information and "manage_upload" will use this. Otherwise, it tries to determine the content type from its "__name__" (which means its id) or the content and falls back to "application/octet-stream" if it fails. As you can see, it fails in your case... The code is in "OFS.Image.File._get_content_type". -- Dieter _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
