Save Image As used to show an ascii file name and now shows a HEX string instead of the ascii name. IE and Chrome do not do this. Why?

Attempting to use the "Save Image As" used to display a dialog box with the proper ascii name of the image file. Now the display of the file name is the HEX part of the link http://assets.amuniversal.com/ec5ca0c0fl2d0132ea77005056a9545d with a proper extension. e.g. ec5ca0c0fl2d0132ea77005056a9545d.jpg

Please post the web address where the image is and what image you are having problems with.

That is a known bug in Firefox 39 caused by the file name as set via Content-Disposition not being used.

  • bug 1180126 - Content-Disposition: inline; filename= doesn't work with Save As

A possible workaround is to open the image in a tab and use "Save Page As" to save the image.

I don't know if this can help

InlineDisposition 2 {web link} InlineDisposition 2 changes the disposition of Content-Disposition response headers from attachment to inline.
