Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Off topic - iis, web servers and txt files
Change the MIME type in IIS to something that isn't text or otherwise displayable in the browser window. I would guess that choosing an application type would be best, and on your own system, make sure that you don't set up something like a text application to automatically open the extension. http://www.onlineworkshop.net/misc/MIME_Types_in_IIS.htm Matt Doug Anderson wrote: That's what I'm trying to get away from.

Mess
around with the mime maps for your IIS server, define that file extension as
anything other than clear-text, I think that will tell the browser to treat it
as an attachment and not open it up in the browser.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Off topic - iis, web servers and txt files
Doug- This sounds like it could be solved by setting up a custom MIME type for .ldif files. If a MIME type is not prsent, the browser resports to plain text. I don't have a clue what you would change it to, however. -Dave Doherty Skywaves, Inc. - Original Message - From: Doug Anderson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2004 2:06 PM Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] Off topic - iis, web servers and txt files Ok, I'm running IIS 5.0 on my imail server.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Off topic - iis, web servers and txt files
That
is default behavior for Internet Explorer. To display a text file. You could zip
it on the server side so when they click the link it asks them to download the
zip file.
Or if
I actually answer your origional post
You
could add your own mime type for your .ldif. If the browser does not recognize
it it will ask to download the file. Do it on the HTTP Headers
tab.
Add
the mime type
extension - ldif
Content type (MIME): x-ldif

I tried mime types for the "web site" and that
wasn't working. one of the emails mentioned the onlineworkshop...I forgot about
setting it for all of IIS. Now it downloads.
Thanks for all the help!
Soon to be published...ldaplst - an ldap reader /
file creator. I'll post it here when ready..I'm just fine tuning and error
proofing right now.

run
asp and load the text file into a stream object and send it to the
browser.
See :
http://www.psacake.com/web/if.asp
The
example has a small code error:
Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=
strFileNameshould beResponse.AddHeader "Content-Disposition",

Add the
following line:
Case
