Make Content-Disposition: attachment more friendly |
|||
Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/58.0.3029.110 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Navigate to a page which contains a link to a Content-Disposition: Attachment resource 2. Attempt to view but not download the resource What is the expected behavior? Able to just view the content without creating a file in my downloads directory What went wrong? Resource is downloaded into a file in my downloads directory, and I need to do a multi-step process to open the file in the browser again, then delete the file from my downloads directory when I'm done with it. Did this work before? No Chrome version: 58.0.3029.110 Channel: stable OS Version: gLinux Flash Version: In a perfect world, web content creators wouldn't make these resources force-download by marking them Content-Disposition: Attachment. Sadly we do not live in a perfect world. I think my ideal would be that the file would start downloading in the download bar, but go to a managed space instead of immediately to my downloads folder, and from there I could choose to view the file or delete it or save it to the downloads folder or whatever. Alternately providing a quick link to be able to delete/move-to-trash the file from the download bar would make the experience less frustrating than having to go through the file browser to find and delete the file.
