attachment.php - wtf?

Lately when I try to view thumbnails, or download some movies, Firefox wants to open "attachment.php" opening it of course, does nothing, in Firefox or Dreamweaver. Could it be my Download Manager? (Internet Download Manager v5) I have satellite and it sucks balls when downloads time out because of elite Fair Access Policy, so I've been using IDM. The attachment.php thing dosn't always happen, so I'm wondering if its an issue with the way an attached image is linked.

I dunno - I'm short tempered right now and its bugging me more than usual :P

Tried turning off IDM, makes no difference. Was just looking at a thread and opening up thumbnails in tabs and about half loaded, half gave me the attachment.php thing.

I don't know if this will help but that used to happen to me using firfox. I used to right click and save on the link of the video file I wanted to save and I always got "attachment.php". So now I just left click on the link and a pop up comes up which asks me if I want to save to disk or just open. I save it to my desktop and then move it to the folder I want.

I'm not sure why this happens with firefox. It doesn't happen with Opera which is the other browser I use.

I'm having the same problem.......once ive done a little bit of investigating (in other words...a google search...:p ) ill report back with my findings.

I'm having a bad browser night :P All my downloads in IE6 come back with Bad Response from Server errors, something's seriously F'd up. And not being able to download my porn is not helping my mood!

xal, you need to talk to franklynxxx.

He'll sort you out, pm him; he's in new york

Moderators pay attention here
this is caused by configuration incompatibility of firefox browser with the site
php setup. Query your website provider to recommend a fix or a browser
settings adjustment.

I seem to have acquired an ill deserved reputation as the answer man. I'm
knowledgeable but by no means omniscient. Googling helps, here's what I found.

The PHP site is no help at all -> http://www.php.net/index.php

Well, I guess then there's not much I can do!

Thank you franklyn!

Falling back on Microsoft Internet Explorer is not same as falling on your sword.
Facial Forums is a trusted site, live links are not even allowed so you do not
need safety features as when surfing in the wild. Its not necessary for you to
change anything already installed and configured, just open Windows Explorer
N O T Internet Explorer, and enter http://facialforum.net/index.php in the
address bar. Internet explorer is activated just for that session until you close it.
