Phoca Forum

hi everybody
now the upload of files with capital letters from frontend works, but a problem remains
the flash uploader (both frontend and backend) shows only image type files in its "add Images" popup window, and it doesn't show files ending with capital letters extensions as images
to be clear: img.jpg and IMG.jpg are shown, img.JPG no
tested with firefox and chromium under linux, phocagallery 3rc4
any suggestions?
thank you for your work and all

The file format 8.3 (all in CAPS) is no longer supported (DOS also known as Disk Operating System), rename all to lower case file extensions, there are thousand tools on the net.

i can do this, but I think my users won't be able to mass rename pictures, and it's the camera which they use that often saves images with capital letters extensions
who doesn't support this format, phocagallery, the flash uploader itself or what?
thank you

FreeBSD, Linux...

You can write an instruction in module or in the component - please rename your files to filename.extesnions instead of FILENAME.EXTENSION.

Also Cyrillic and Kanji symbols are not acceptable too,if u have file named - Товарищ for example, u should rename it to tovarisht or comrade.

ok, thank you
under windows it works, it should be enough (will test on mac, linux users will be able to rename I hope)
it would be nice to have the possibility to choose in the file chooser whether to see image files or all files (with php side check of extensions obviously)
