Re: [users@httpd] apache 2.0.54 configuration with cgi,php scripting
support
Note that this HTML message (the one I am replying to) contains multiple
links to the identical message posted on experts-exchange.com.
Note that the question is a very general one with an obvious answer, but
one that will probably be searched for with some frequency ("Apache
install and configure documentation"). Note that the terms in the
message which are hyperlinked are also ones that would tend to be
searched for (documentation, Apache, server, CGI, PHP).
Note that all the links from this posting to experts-exchange will tend
to bias search engines to deliver that domain higher in its results.
Note that experts-exchange is a profit making organization, charging $10
per month for (in this case at least) information available elsewhere
for free. (There is nothing wrong with making a profit, per se, but that
should be for adding value, not ripping off other people's efforts.)
One could speculate that a post such as this may not have been made in
good faith.
Perhaps the Apache list server should be set to convert html messages to
plaintext. (Mailman has a setting for this, I know.)
Just my two cents' worth.

Have you inspected the actual Content-Type header being returned by
the server? It probably hasn't changed, which probably means that you
aren't editting the right config file or you aren't restarting httpd
after making the changes.

[users@httpd] output csv mime headers for downloading
Posted by theshz <th...@gmail.com>.
Hi, I'm trying to allow my users to download a csv file, and am hoping with
the correct header, the
browser will offer to download rather than display the content. I added the
".csv" extension to mime.types
next to ".xls" as "application/vnd.ms-excel xls csv", but the browser
(firefox) still displays the content
rather than offering for download. If I use ".xls", all works fine. What am
I doing wrong?
Thanks.

I agree that this looks very dubious.

I'm not going to do anything in particular about this at the moment,
except for recommending that people stay away from a company with such
unethical marketing practices.
I believe that our list mangager (ezmlm) has the capability to reject
messages with html, but not to strip html.
