Hi Jerry, 

What was the specific filename?  If you had something like "mypicture.jpg" or mypicture."jpg" we wouldn't be able to get the .jpg off the end.  

Let me know some more details and I'll check it out.  Thanks!

Thanks for looking at this Dave,

The file names would have been something like myphoto-January-1014-12"x24".jpg, where the " represents inches

(If we would just switch to the metric system the problem would be solved once and for all...)

Best,

Jerry Kornbluth

Hi Jerry,

Yea, or convince everyone to switch back to imperial!

I can't reproduce the issue locally.  If I upload a file with this name: myphoto-January-1014-12"x24".jpg

I get an upload with this name: myphoto-january-1014-12-x24.jpg

Can you reproduce it?

Hi Dave,

Thanks for sticking with this.

No I can't because I'm on a PC and I can't enter double quotes as a part of a file name.

I've emailed you account info so that you can try the issue on the site in question.

Thanks again,

Jerry
