           Summary: Ability to do "greater than" display filter on http
                    content lenth
           Product: Wireshark
           Version: 0.99.3
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows Server 2003
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Low
         Component: Wireshark
        AssignedTo: wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: mwreynolds@xxxxxxxxx


I am a big fan of wireshark and in particular the rich TCP reassemble and http
dissector functionality.

I often have a need to open large http traces and use a display filter to
identify the reassembled object downloads, such as jpg files.

Often there are many such http 200 status reassembles in a trace, and I would
like to be able to filter out the many tiny downloads to identify larger items.
So, I would like to be able to do something like (http.content_length >=
10000).

Wireshark actually allows me to apply that as a display filter, but it doesn't
work as expected. From my uneducated standpoint it appears that this may be
because the http dissector treats this field as a 22 byte string, rather than
extracting the value and treating it as an integer.

So, it would be really nice if this were treated as a number and the
functionality that would provide.

Thanks for the great tool!
