I think you may have altered something in the conf file or something. And, despite Randy's assertion otherwise I added 'PerlSendHeader on' just now to no effect.

I think(?) the issue is that the browser doesn’t know the contents because the header returned is a wap header i.e. 'Content-Type: text/vnd.wap.wml'. The browser then assumes it's a file download and promptly does just that! Although having said that, I have a browser plug-in that should fire up if the response is wml. It doesn't. But, while writing this I thought 'I wonder what Netscape does'? You guys are going to love this! Can you believe that Netscape does as it should and fires up my plug-in? Well it does. It seems this is an IE Explorer-Mod_perl specific problem! I still need to stop files being downloaded by IE users though! Kind regards to all, Angela --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
