http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32052 Wish: denote unknown file types in some special header Summary: Wish: denote unknown file types in some special header Product: Apache httpd-2.0 Version: 2.0-HEAD Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: Other Component: Core AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] By default, Apache marks any unknown file as text/plain. One could change defaults - but very few do. So unknown file types, as RAR and 7-zip archives, are mistreated as texts and are killed during download. I wish that Apache will add some header or in some other way mark the files, where real file type was not known and fallback to default type occured. Then browser could easily detect this. As well as any proxy software like Proxomitron could substitute MIME-Type then. This also may be wished for Apache 1.3 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
