Lack of this type causes problems with included JavaScript files on Win32 platforms running Netscape Navigator 3.
I ran into the problem after our systems person installed the latest version of Apache. After getting reports from Win32/NN3 users of a problem with a major JavaScript application, we managed to trace the problem to the mime.types configuration file. There was another report on comp.lang.javascript recently, so the problem seems to affect a number of sites. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Simply add the line "application/x-javascript .js" to the distributed mime.types file. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: [In order for any reply to be added to the PR database, ] [you need to include <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in the Cc line ] [and leave the subject line UNCHANGED.
