Can't download buy list containing triple bond in firefox

[ricgillams]

There is an issue with the file download protocol when downloading a file containing a '#' in Firefox.

This may be related to the fact that encodeURI does not escape #, however switching to encodeURIComponent which would encode the # does not fix the problem.

Works fine in chrome...

But think of the seamonkey... :P

Now issue seems to have extended into Chrome also.

One solution is to zip up before download. It is a bit annoying for user, but I believe I tested it and it works. So probably a nice enough work around, at least in the short term.

Or get everyone to use seamonkey!!!!
