[Bug 221409] Re: Ubuntu Browse Multiple Files dialog does not recognize capital / uppercase JPG as image

[Brent Newland]

It works on any site that limits you to uploading images.

To test: create a new directory, fill it with ten images. Make SURE the
file extension is .JPG (all upercase letters). Go to imagebam.com (you
have to sign up for a new account or login) then choose the Multi-upload
option. If you are affected, you will not see any images.

I'm running the latest 8.04 with latest firefox and all updates. Running
Gnome and Nautilus (also OpenBox, but same thing). Just tested and same
problem, also does it for capitalized PNG extensions (and presumably
others).

I tried to test in Opera, but no flash in my opera yet (so I can't
access the upload dialog).

Also happens at Myspace.com when you upload a pic to your profile.

I so far can only find flash uploads that have the image extensions for
upload enabled.

I also have Flash 10 beta(alpha?).

I do not believe they are related though, because file upload dialog is
exclusively through the OS and is not dependent on a website (letting a
website directly access your files would be a big security risk).
