Glenn Linderman added the comment: So the issue you perceive is that a correctly MIME-typed .mht file has a MIME type of multipart/related -- but that for the purposes of uploading the file, you don't want to treat it as that MIME type, but rather as an opaque data file.
Just give it a different MIME type at the time of upload, like application/octet-stream. That is appropriate, if your application wants to treat the data as an opaque data stream. But, you say, none of the browsers support user-specified or user-selectable MIME types, but rather they infer the MIME type from the file extension. So that sounds like a bug in the browsers... but also gives an out... change the name of the file before uploading it. The only bug I see here is your comment that the parsing fails. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15564> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
