Doesn't catch .torrent files #11

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 7 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Click on a link with a .torrent file 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect it to get directed to deluge we ui 1.3.6, instead it asks me to 
open/save the torrent.  There is no issue with magnet links.

What version of the addon are you using? On what operating system?
bittorrent webui+ 0.2.3.0
firefox 24.0
windows 8.1

What type and version of torrent client and webui are you using?
deluge web ui 1.3.6

Please provide any additional information below.
It might be related to me using sabnzbfox which does a similar thing to catch 
nzb files.  That works fine but bittorrent-webui+ doesn't.  In any case I'd 
appreciate you helping me track this down.

It could be related to that other addon if it is also intercepting http 
requests.
Have you tried disabling the sabnzbfox addon and seeing if it works?

Thanks for responding, sorry I should have put that I tried disabling it and it 
doesn't work, I've also tried reinstalling the addon.

I created a new firefox profile and set it up by itself and I'm still getting 
the same result.

The problem here is not the addon but the site you are downloading it from.
It does the same thing for me if I click the same link as you.
There must be something weird about that URL that doesn't work correctly with 
the http observer.

I've seen that happen with other sites where they hide the torrent file behind 
a php download link but it shouldn't be doing it with that link because it 
should still be able to pick up the torrent extension even if it does not have 
a torrent content type.

I'd have to look into it further to figure out why it is not being captured 
from that site.

I think you're right, sorry I just tried a couple other sites.  I figured the 
link would be fine since it doesn't look like it's doing some javascript/php 
things but it works fine if I download ubuntu.

Thanks for looking at it and for making this extension
