Description
When I try to upload files with Japanese character titles, I keep getting the response that "File is not valid for upload - Filename has no extension" although they clearly do. They only way I can get the files to upload is to add some English alphanumeric characters to the filename - anywhere in the filename - and then they upload, no problems...

Fascinating!
The function that checks the filename is: dbfm_check_name (in dbfm.module).
You'll need to tinker with that until you can get it to allow your Japanese character set without letting through clearly invalid filenames.
You're on your own as to quite how ... let me know how you get on!

Well, nothing's happened on this since August so I'm closing it.
