Last modified: 2016-04-07 08:39:20 UTC
When we try to attach a file to an issue on Bugzilla, there are four choices of content type, or MIME type, media type: Content Type: If the attachment is a patch, check the box below. [ ] patch --- (1) Otherwise, choose a method for determining the content type. (x) auto-detect --------- (2) ( ) select from list: --- (3) ( ) enter manually: ----- (4) The list (3) currently offers seven choices: plain text (text/plain) HTML source (text/html) XML source (application/xml) GIF image (image/gif) JPEG image (image/jpeg) PNG image (image/png) binary file (application/octet-stream) Of the choices, for XML source, http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3023 says: If an XML document -- that is, the unprocessed, source XML document -- is readable by casual users, text/xml is preferable to application/xml. ... Could you consider altering a type of XML source from application/xml to text/xml?
now we just have two choices "XML text (text/xml)" and "XML data (application/xml)" in the listbox.
getting rid of value "enhancement" for field "severity". For enhancement the field "issue type" shall be used.
suggest close it,because now the attachment type will be auto-checked to some format by Bugzilla.
