[Bug 84880] Re: firefox uploads files with wrong mimetype

[Michael JasonSmith]

[Ubuntu 9.10, Firefox 3.5.8]

When I posted PDF files using Firefox the MIME-type was being set to
text/html. However, I noticed in
~/.mozilla/firefox/xxx.default/mimeTypes.rdf the following entry

  <RDF:Description RDF:about="urn:mimetype:text/html"
                   NC:value="text/html"
                   NC:editable="true"
                   NC:description="">
    <NC:fileExtensions>pdf</NC:fileExtensions>
    <NC:fileExtensions>html</NC:fileExtensions>
    <NC:fileExtensions>htm</NC:fileExtensions>
    <NC:fileExtensions>shtml</NC:fileExtensions>
    <NC:handlerProp RDF:resource="urn:mimetype:handler:text/html"/>
  </RDF:Description>

After  removing the line "<NC:fileExtensions>pdf</NC:fileExtensions>"
and restarting Firefox I posted two PDF files, and the MIME-type was
correctly set on both.
