Well, I am looking for a solution that a normal user can use without hacking javascript or PHP (cf. shimi's message). I need to post (automatically, programmatically) files of different types - including txt and csv - and make them accessible through a web server. I want a normal Windows or Linux user with a mainstream browser to be able to open the files in an expected way - for csv it is spreadsheet, for txt it is a text editor of choice, etc. Take a Windows user. As things stand now, she will be fine as long as she uses IE. If she decides on Firefox, it won't work as intended and there is no configuration that can make it work. Does this sound right? In my specific situation I may circumvent the problem by making the files available through a samba/CIFS server. This is a workaround, not a solution. It also requires Linux users to do more work - either mount the share or use a samba browser or use Konqueror rather than Firefox... I am quite surprised that this is not trivially configurable in FF. If this forum does not offer an obvious solution 24h after OP then maybe I need to file a bug with Mozilla... I'll consider it. -- Oleg Goldshmidt | o...@goldshmidt.org _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
