[SOLED] Firefox input type = file selects the wrong file
When I have use a webpage in firefox that has an upload feature, Firefox often selects the wrong file. I can reproduce this problem by simply creating a form with an input tag like this:
<input type="file" />
When I enter the file selection screen and open fileA the input box contains fileA, fileB or fileC. It seems kind of random to me. I use KDE 4.5 btw, if that matters.

Re: [SOLED] Firefox input type = file selects the wrong file
It seems to be some kind of kde problem. When I delete ~/.kde4/share/config/* it works fine. I tried deleting the all files in share/config starting with a-m and it still didn't work. Then I deleted every file from n-z and it didn't work so it's probably a combination of files that give these problems. I don't feel like setting up KDE all over again so damn, it's back to Icewm, again...

Re: [SOLED] Firefox input type = file selects the wrong file
Does it occur in another browser besides Firefox?

No, just firefox. But I purged the whole profile, then even reinstalled the system just to be sure and now it works fine
