validates_attachment_content_type doesn't work on ie7
Reported by Roob | July 18th, 2008 @ 05:56 AM
it seems that the paperclip validates_attachment_content_type function has problems with files uploaded by internet explorer 7 (didn't test ie6). maybe the cause is the scrambled filename (whole path) that ie submits with the input type="file"?

correction: internet explorer sends the mime-type “image/pjpeg” instead of “image/jpeg” with jpeg files. this is horrible, but if you validate for the additional mime-type, it works!
i think this can be closed.

Yeah. I'll make sure to add a note in the validates_attachment_content_type documentation noting that IE's content types are a little funky. Thanks.
