Error description

  • PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
    
    The functionality to export several application presentations,
    using Application Designer, the saved file gets converted to
    .html file format, instead of .xml format.  This occurs when
    using Chormoe or Microsoft Edge.  It is working well with
    Firefox.
    
    
    REPRODUCTION STEPS
    1. Log in to Maximo and navigate to Application Designer
    2. Filter for multiple applications, for example, look for
    applications that have "work" in their Description
    3. Using Select Records, select three apps like WFADMIN,
    WFDESIGN, WORKVIEW
    4. Select Export Application Definition
    5. The browser will open a new tab, with the .xml file of the
    application definitions
    6. Save the file and make sure the extension is .xml
    7. Open the file, using Notepad++
    
    RESULTS
    Note that the displayed file is a .HTML file, instead of .xml.
    
    EXPECTED RESULTS
    The saved file should be of .xml format and not .html format
    
    REPORTED IN VERSIONS
    TPAE IFIX002
    
    Note that APAR IJ28178 corrects the scenario where one
    application is exported.
