I have a shtml web page that has link to the PowerPoint slide. when the hyperlink is clicked on it shows different options to different users. In some cases the file download box shows the Document Type as "Microsoft Office PowerPoint Presentation, 78.1 KB" while to some users the Document type is shown as "Compressed (zipped) Folder, 78.1 KB." Both these messages are shown on the same hyperlink where the document type is PowerPoint. NOt sure why some users are seeing the Compressed file type in the download dialog box.

Well, that bit I understood already.
 Does the zipped version exist on the server or is it created on the fly? Is there any content negotiation going on? What file type is the PP file (ppt, pps...)? Check what content-type the server gives it. |
