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

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 |

to check file association, try this page http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307859 shoudl be the same in xp and vista
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.
hope that helps? |

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. :-) |

Maybe you could provide a few links - some that work, some that don't, it'll help with debugging |
