I can confirm that the same code works on Firefox 3.0.4 - I just ran it up on the older version. So its definitely the 3.0.5 update which has the issue.

Hi all,



Some code:

in form:

//upload form component
FileUploadField uploadField = new FileUploadField("picture");
form.add(uploadField);


in onSubmit() of form:

//get file that was uploaded
FileUpload upload = uploadField.getFileUpload();
if (upload == null) {
        log.error("upload was null.");
        return;
} else if (upload.getSize() == 0) {
        log.error("upload was empty.");
        return;
} else if (!checkContentTypeForImage(upload.getContentType())) {
        log.error("invalid file type uploaded");
        return;
} else {
        String mimeType = upload.getContentType();
        String fileName = upload.getClientFileName();
        
        //get bytes, etc                        
        byte[] imageBytes = upload.getBytes();
}


in Safari 3.2.1 the upload works fine
in Camino 1.6.6 the upload works fine also
in Firefox 3.0.5, the upload is null.

Just testing an application I have written which works perfectly fine in Safari 3.2.1, but in Firefox 3.0.5 the FileUpload is failing. This bit of code hasn't changed for quite some time and last time I tested it it was working fine. Latest Firefox update seems to have killed it.
