Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

I'm trying to upload my pictures through YOLA site uploader, but Firefox cannot recognize ***.JPG. But when I change the file to ***.jpg(without the capital letter), it works fine.

All the pictures file in Ubuntu were in ***.JPG(with the capital letter).

I have tried to upload using Google Chromium. Chromium can recognize ***.JPG without any problem(but Chromium cannot upload the picture - do not know why, maybe because Chromium doesn't support JAVA)

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.

Thank you for reporting this to Ubuntu. Ubuntu uses case sensitive file systems. Therefore *.JPG is not the same as *.jpg. I would suggest contacting the site owner and having both extensions added as a search option.
