As a scientist rather than a web programmer I have used ftp for a lot longer than http is old. My offerings as HTML anchors, served by apache, usually point to fully specified ftp:// URI's which I keep in an ftp directory which is accessible via ordinary ftp clients. I haven't had any complaints about strange formats and filename extensions including .tsv but rarely .csv. The browsers, including IE, seem to pass the problem to an ftp plugin without complaint. -- --> The best programming tool is a soldering iron <-- --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
