Re: file download problem

[Dakota Jack <da...@gmail.com>]

Just a thought.  Isn't there a specific content type for .doc
documents?  That might solve your problem.I looked it up.  .doc
documents are "application/msword".  Try that and see what happens.  I
am actually building a list of all the extensions and their content
types.  Hope this helps.
