Public bug reported:

Version : 1.8RC

In Content->Resume

Context :
You want to add files as attachment for different points of your resumé (certificate, letter of recommendation, etc.).

What is expected :
You fill in the form for an entry in your job history and at the botton you have a link or a button to add a document either from your personal file zone or from your computer if the document is not already in the formal.

How it works in 1.8RC:

A) At the bottom of the form you get the option to add a file with a
"Browse" button. This button only lets you go and upload a file from
your computer not from your personal file zone.

B) The plus sign link (+) under the "Browse" button lets you add many
"Browse" button without actually having uploaded a file with the
previous "Browse" button.

C) The plus sign link (+) disappears (but it is still clickable) when
'mouseovered' once.

D) When the form is then saved and accessed again for editing, the add
file interface has changed and a button "Add file" is displayed instead
of the *Browse" and plus (+) sign.

Conclusion: the interface for adding and managing attachment to resumé
is not consistent and may be confusing for certain users and then should
be revised.
