Hi. Using Firefox on ASUS TF101 tablet. When uploading a doc to my .net content management system it renames it tmp.1234.null and it wont open. Hope you can help.

Firefox recognises the 'browse for file' button. I find the file (eg. ms word doc) in the File Manager. When it uploads it renames it into this odd tmp.xxxx.null file.

I downloaded Documents to Go and uploading files from Doc to Go instead of File Manager seems to solve problem. It does change the file name to tmp_xxxx but the doc still opens.
