Full Version: File Download displayed in gibberish

I am using Dreamweaver 8 to develop a website. I am a newbie!
I have the code:

<td><a href="myfile.exe" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()" onMouseOver="MM_swapImage('download_r2_c2','','../buttons/download_r2_c2_f2.gif',1);" ><img name="download_r2_c2" src="../buttons/download_r2_c2.gif" width="148" height="34" border="0"></a></td>

When I test the page on my PC it works perfectly. The file download box opens asking me what I want to do, where I want to save the file etc.

However, when I test it from my actual website, I get a page of gibberish!

What am I doing wrong?

Also,

I have the following menu:
<td width="100" valign="middle" nowrap bordercolor="#333333" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><ul class="MenuBarHorizontal style19 style20 style20" id="MenuBarData">
<li><a href="#" class="style20 MenuBarItemSubmenu"><strong>Data</strong></a>
<ul>
<li><a href="../logdata/LogData.htm" class="style20">LogTagData.com</a></li>
<li><a href="../pimm/pimm.htm" class="style20">PIMM LogTags</a></li>
<li><a href="../InstantLogger/InstantLogger.htm" class="style20">Instant Logger</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul></td>

When I test the menu on my PC it works perfectly and the correct pages open.
However when testing on my website, if I select logdata and pimm both return: The requested URL /Demo/logtag/LogTag.htm was not found on this server.
Yet InstantLogger works
I have conformed that the pages are on the server!

Can you provide the URL (address) of a document that demonstrates the problem?

Because what you show us is not THE code. It's a small part of the code. smile.gif
