      Symptoms

      When adding or editing a multimedia macro to a page, the attachments list is empty. This happens when the page title contains a colon ":" character. Other non-alphanumeric characters do not seem to have the same problem.

      Steps to Duplicate

      1. Create a page containing a ":" in the title
      2. Attach a multimedia file to that page
      3. Try to insert a multimedia macro on that page

      Workaround

      There are two workarounds:

      1. Remove any colons from the title. This will cause the files to appear in the list.
      2. Drag and drop the file from a local folder to the editor window. This will bypass having to select the file name from the list.
