Attachment.Php problems

[Abaddon1]

Hey there. Seem to be having a bit of a problem with some of the attachments. Basically, while images are fine, any time I try to right click/save link as anything like a wmv or zip, the only option i get is attachment.php. Started happening a few days ago, and not sure why, think it might have something to do with VBulletin. The attachment will download if I click it properly, but that gets sent to my temp folder, and with splits, its kind of annoying having to fish every file out of there and copy it over. Using Firefox 1.5.0.2 and no download managers, just normal Firefox Download.

That is an issue between vBulletin and Firefox because we had the same exact problem at Ocmb. You might be able to remedy it by renaming it from attachment.php to its correct name (including the extension) before clicking the Save button. (Despite the misnaming as attachment.php, the file itself will be downloaded correctly.)

Best of luck,

There is an extension that solves this problem which can be found here:

Downloading with Mozilla Firefox is possible with left clicking. A menu will pop up at the first time you use it which ask you if you want to open or save the file. Chosse save and mark the field that allows you to save a file everytime you left click on the link.
