We've just upgraded to 7.3 and out of the blue our attachments are being downloaded instead of just opening up to be viewed. Specifically .jpg's. This was not the norm before.

And just to cause me more grief, it seems some do and some don't. All .jpg's or .JPG's

Anyone else see this behavior, and or any idea where I might look to fix it?

What do you have set for 'Max Size for inline uploaded images' within the general settings in the CP.



(If an image is attached to the post, if it is smaller than the specified size (in bytes) it will be displayed in the post.)

Nope that didn't fix it, I just set that to 30000000 and still no go. The images did load up in-line though.

Its an odd issue.

Anyone have any other ideas here. It almost acts like anything posted prior to 2008 gets downloaded, anything upload since 2008 opens up.

i posted a 'fix' for the file /scripts/download.inc.php somewhere on these forums..

dunno which thread, but search for that filename

And here is more information on the subject if wanted.
Content-disposition might be the issue. Why it would be for some and not others I'm not sure.

How do I force the browser to download


Here is a KB from Mozilla that might be of assistance as well.
