Subject: Uploading images with a Mac (New Info)
> Hi all,
>
> Ok I have an image upload section that works fine, on pc. When macs
upload
> an image, the image will not show in the browser, although the file does
> exist on the server. So I double clicked the file and my browser opened
up
> to try to view the image, no luck couldnt view it. Although I can view it
> in other image apps like ACDSee and Photoshop.
>
> Now for the interesting info :)
>
> After uploading, I output the CFFILE.ContentType and
CFFILE.ContentSubType,
> the mime type from what I understand.
>
> Mac output: application/x-macbinary
> PC output: image/pjpeg
>
> Im thinking that the browser uses this info to display the image, and when
> it encounters the mac mime type it doesnt know how do display it, although
> the graphic programs dont have a problem with this.
>
> My proposed solution:
> When receiving the upload from a mac force the mime type. Now if I only
> knew how to do that :) Could I use CFHeader or something????
>
> Thanks for any ideas at all,
> Jeff
