[Bug 187736] Re: Right click, Save As in firefox runs script instead of saving it
I wish to report a similar problem of the script opening rather than opening of the save dialog box. Infact I am facing this problem with Firefox as well as Opera with Super OS 9.04 -- Right click, Save As in firefox runs script instead of saving it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187736 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Whether or not I have a good grasp of whats happening, I don't believe this should be the default behavior. can anyone reproduce this and provide a clear step-by-step instruction on how to reproduce? status incomplete - Alexander ** Changed in: firefox-3.0 (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Incomplete -- Right click, Save As in firefox runs script instead of saving it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187736 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 187736] Re: Right click, Save As in firefox runs script instead of saving it
Thank you for reporting back. Indeed, I can confirm this behaviour and I tend to agree that a script should not be automatically executed after Save Link as. At least, the user is being asked, though, if the script should be run, so if anything this is a minor problem. ** Changed in: firefox-3.0 (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: firefox = firefox-3.0 Importance: Undecided = Low Assignee: Rolf Leggewie (r0lf) = (unassigned) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- Right click, Save As in firefox runs script instead of saving it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187736 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
