I never even touched a single remotely relating to attachments, which is what bugs me.

Erm... Sabotage?

Mime maybe?

[sub]Something in Firefox is triggering it. Attachments work fine with IE. Im sad now. [/sub]

Maybe it was a patch in firefox that did it.
Firefox updates regularly (at least mine does).

It's probably a script that's not read well by firefox that's triggering it.
Same goes for css scripts. Glownames! It's also the reason why im using IE, so I can see glownames.

[sub]And I just tested, Mozilla does not work either. Im extra sad now.[/sub]

Motzilla must have also recieved the patch. Or something like that.

Or it could just be on sen's part.

My guess would be a messed up header. It's possible it's sending it as plain text instead of ot's actual file type.

If you think about it, it can't be the server, as IE displays them correctly, and it can't be uploading, as IE sees them correctly, and both see the thumbnails correctly. It has to be a client parse error, so probably a header. Either that or FF is gay. (I'd go with that though )

In a related note, how are the thumbnails formed? Do they take the original image and just resize it dynamically, or just make a copy and resize that to show?

I might be able to help if you can show me the code, minus SQL, of course, if you wish.

I uninstalled FireFox and installed an old version (1.0.7). Attachments are working fine. Whatever the problem is, its on the browser's end, not SEN's.

EDIT: Correction. It still doesn't work on 1.0.7

EDIT 2: But yeah, it does work fine in IE.

For IE,viewing screenshot is fine... downloading wise, its screwed. I can't even do "save target as" then renaming it to .scx

For Mozilla, viewing attachment has been nukezored, although for downloading. I can "save link as" then rename it to .scv, and it works! Meh this is weird.

In other words. This site is lieing to us. It said all this bogus stuff at the top:



I was lied to! Why?!

There is alot of non-comliancy in the air!
From now on just use IE and save as all the way.

For all FF only users, download IETab.
http://ietab.mozdev.org/
works. Just right click attachment->open in IETab.

Apparently they are being sent to the browser as text/html, i sniffed it.

The headers aren't being output correctly.

Yes, I already said that earlier. IE doesnt show the same because it likes to ignore headers.

Use this if iamacow's link didn't work for you (didn't load for me). Exact same thing, different host.

So why is this happening all of a sudden?

Something porely designed in the website.

There is nothing to do with the website. Its all Mozilla... no code was changed at all.
(Side note: Your spelling is "porely" designed )

Well, I wasn't exactly looking for that type of response. From what I look like, this happened spontaneously, it's just strange.

@Moose, what did Mozilla do?
@Moose's side note:

It worked until the new version came out.

Except you may notice that the HEADERS are messed up, its not messed up in IE only becuase it ignores some headers.

So the headers have always been messed up? You could find where it loads attachments, grab the mime type (if mime.magic is enabled) and output a header based off of that. That...or...wait for Firefox to fix itself.
