I can’t recreate (using Opera 10). Could you start a forum thread on this and see if anyone else can recreate? |

I stumbled over this issue while testing force_downloading a PDF under Ubuntu Linux, using Firefox. The header sent is “mime_type”, but should be just mime_type, without the double quotes. The Ubuntu document viewer would not recognize the quoted mime type. |

I can confirm this using CodeIgniter 1.7.2 (Mac OS X / Firefox) |
