using file upload in v22 - leading 3 characters of file removed
The following code works fine with IE, where "Browse" is on the right and the whole pathname is uploaded with the file. But with Firefox v22 the "Browse" text is on the left (which doesn't bother me) and only the file name is uploaded with the file. But the first 3 characters of the file name are stripped off, so a file called ABCDEFG.doc is stored as DEFG.doc. In the html I have: <form name="MYFILESF3" method="post" action="/cgilib/myfiles" encType="multipart/form-data"> <fieldset style="position:absolute; left:40px; top:100px; border:none;">
Upload to: | <input readonly="readonly" class="oalpb2" type="text" name="F3HOMEPATH" size="0020" tabindex="-1" maxlength="0020" value="" /> |
<input class="butsm2" type="submit" name="F3UPLOAD" value="Upload" /> | <input class="butsm2" type="submit" name="F3CAN" value="Cancel" /> |
</fieldset>
<fieldset style="position:absolute; left:40px; top:230px; width:400px;"> <legend style="color:blue;"> Upload File </legend>
File | <input type="file" name="F3UPLFILE" size="0080" maxlength="0080" tabindex="1" value=""/> |
</fieldset> </form>

Does using the latest Firefox 25.0.1 update help?
Unfortunately, I can't test this, because I need Firefox v22 to access an IBM HMC - nothing else works properly ! I'll see if I can get a separate instance of 25.0.1 installed on another box and test it. Did you have similar issues?
No, haven't tried it, but have heard about the IBM issues on 23 and up.
You can use a seperate instance by using a portable version of firefox.
Same problem at V23. After looking at error console added accept-charset=UTF-8 to form but this didn't have any effect.
