Odd PDL Button Behaviour
Posted: 24 Oct 2011, 17:46
Hi
Joomla 1.5.23
PhocaDL 1.3.9
PhocaDL Plugin 1.3.6
PhocaDL Button Plugin 1.3.5
An odd thing is happening with source code to download PDF files on an article page.
The code on the page (during Admin editing in the backend) is:
But this is what is rendered in the browser for that page:
So I am really puzzled why the first is correctly rendered as a request for the file, while the second entry is incorrectly rendered.
I'm looking for help as I have tried various changes to the code (swapping the file ID, checking the file name for spaces etc) but all to no avail.
Both files are simple PDFs, both in the same joomla folder, both in the same category (the prob exists also if I change the category).
I did find that if I associate a file with a Category ID >= 8, then the fail happens. The inverse is true: set the category for a file to <=7 and it downloads fine.
It also happens if I copy/paste the code to a new webpage article or if I recreate the links using the button in the editor.
Can anyone suggest if I am making an error here?
