http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=5773 --- Comment #5 from Julian Reschke <julian.reschke@gmx.de> 2008-06-20 06:39:20 --- (In reply to comment #4) > You can already do that: > > <a href="resource">Resource</a> > > The user can decide whether to download it, open it, open it in a new tab, or > whatever. Why isn't that enough? 1) Web site developers frequently do not want to rely on the ability of users to understand their browser's context menu. 2) Content-Disposition allows to specify a filename that is != the last path segment. This can help when the "original" URL space does not have "good" names, and also it can help with I18N. That being said, the I18N problem for C-D needs to be worked on in some way; spec-wise, there's little left to do except a clarification that yes, you need to support a subset of RFC 2231. The biggest roadblock are two browsers not doing it, and I think it would be good if either the WHATWG or HTML 5 told them what they need to do. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
