ok - this is strange... i am using aspupload - and clients are uploading pdfs and zip files... recently a customer uploaded a zip and a pdf together (two attachments) and both files download as htm files (they are stored on the server with the correct ext. and i can open them ok from the server) so it has something to do with the retrieval... any ideas - it doesn't happen all the time - which makes it weird. thanks

are you sure that you havent set it to open with you web broswer rather than the pdf reader? have you tryed to open the same file on a different computer?
yes.. it won't open on another computer either... but the file says its a zip or a pdf (and some zip and pdfs download correctly)... and these are larger/smaller than the ones in question. and i can open them directly on the server
i really need help on this --- some zip files download others don't i receive filename (test_zipmemberfldrID=97csF=) type html document vs name test.zip type compressed (zipped) folder so i'm guessing the name is hosed somehow........ how can this be?
also..when you click on the link to get the pdf file, what is the extension of the file? i ask because when u say "i receive filename (test_zipmemberfldrID=97csF=) type html document" to me this means that there isnt a pdf extension on it and as u are opening it from a web page it will more than likly try and open it as a html document.
most pdf files work - and they all have a .pdf file extension most zip files work - and they all have a .zip file extension on them. those that don't work act like htm files - and they time out. if i rename the file and reupload, it still doesn't work. if i take some of the items out of the zip file and upload - it may or maynot work. :-)
