    Default Bug in the MB. Annoying. Not vital though.

    http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...threadid=65712

    This is especially annoying in things like the Post your Desktop or Post your Picture threads or the Fanart forum. It forces me to download all the files instead of letting me view them. If someone could try the fix I'd be pretty happy. Or not, either way. I'm not gonna lose any sleep over it. You just have to change one line of code, looks like.

    Yeah, I've seen this. Mozilla seems to be the only affected browser since with Phoenix you can open the attachment with a default program like Paint or something. I think it would be worth it to fix since a lot of people here use Mozilla.

    Opera forces you to download them to, and always save as attachment.php, and always puts the php extension on as well, which is annoying since I have to rename in Explorer for every attachment I download.
    Problems playing downloaded videos? Try CCCP

    I guess I should assume this is never going to be fixed, right? OK.

    It says how on that website I linked to.

    ...edit attachment.php and change

    header("Content-dis:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:$attachment filename=$attachmentinfo[filename]" );

    to

    header("Content-dis:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou::bou: inline; filename=$attachmentinfo[filename]" );

    I don't know if that works or not. It was posted / archived on the official vBB forum though.

    I don't know how to edit attachment.php is what I meant. XP

    I tried to do something that required me to edit another .php file and Scottie wouldn't tell me how. :/

    Oh, you download the php file from EoFF's server via FTP, edit it and then reupload the edited version. Probably the hardest part is finding the file on the server, and then finding the right line to edit in the file.

    I think I did it. Sorry it took so long; let me know if that didn't fix it.
