Title: Issue with downloading files from NT under Chrome
Post by: Devan on April 18, 2012, 02:01:19 AM
Odd problem!  I've tries to search on this forum if anyone else has come across this, but couldn't find anything, so here goes:

I've got a web app that allows the user to upload files to the NetTalk server, and later on, download them again as needed.

Files get uploaded fine, and I've checked the folder where they are stored - all seems normal.

The problem is when any user using Chrome as their browser tries to download any file, the file gets downloaded as 'filename.ext----------------------' with as many '-' padding out the length of the filename it looks like.

Doesn't happen in IE or Firefox, just Chrome.

Like I said, I've checked the file that is uploaded, even checked the download link in NT and it all looks ok (e.g. "foldername/filename.ext").

Anyone else come across this?  It is happening on 2 separate NT6 webapps of mine now...

Thanks!
Devan

Hi Bruce,

Yes it does - I just tested it and getting the same results.

In example 26, I changed the field MAI:MailBoxPicture in the MailboxesFormControl form, under the 'OnClick' tab I switched the 'URL' field from 'www.capesoft.com' to 'MAI:MailBoxPicture'.

Now, the app gives me a link to the source picture file on the server, and when I download it, I am getting the series of '-' appended to the file name (Chrome only).

Cheers,
Devan

ok, post your tweaked version of the example, and dict, and I'll see if I can duplicate.

cheers
