Pictures within messages don't download as files [message #22550] Mon, 07 February 2005 03:56 Go to next message

One more thing (my forum is still 2.6.9)

When there is a RAR archive attached to the message, and I click on it's link to download, the browser (I use IE6) gives me a dialog box with "Save as" option, and download goes well.

But when it's a picture (jpeg, for instance), - clicking on it just opens up this picture in a browser window, and I can see it, but not download. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

If you want to save the picture right click on the download link and "save as" or similar option.

ha! this results in downloading index.php, and logs out of the forum! and in this index.php there's only an "error" message...

Works fine on my dev forum and this forum.
What browser are you using?

Here are some "variables" to consider:

1) What browser is being used (Personally I use Firefox and it works with it, tested with IE and Opera just now and that works too).

2) Is https:// being used on your forum?

3) Are URL sessions enabled and are they used exclusively (no cookie sessions) ?
