Image drag and drop from FF only gives me .bmp?

Post by kartal »

Hi

Is there a way go get original image file format and name when I drag and drop files from FF? Every drop comes as a jibberish name .bmp. I mean at least I can drag and drop images(FF3) but I am not getting any success regarding the original file name and format.

Hmm, works perfectly here with FF3? You might have to enable the following tweak though:

Code: Select all

v7.50.0011 - 2008-09-02 21:36
    + INI-Tweak to make dropping images from Firefox 3 work.
        [General]
        WorkAroundFirefox3ImageDropBug=1
      If set to 1, the images are actually *downloaded* from their web 
      location to your harddisk.
