hihi, what controls what type of resource will be displayed within the browser? (versus invoking an external application specifically for that resource type?)
for example on one of my web pages i have this link: http://localhost:8080/myapp/hello.txt on Tomcat 4.1.24 clicking on that link will automatically invoke Notepad.exe to display that hello.txt file. the web page stays in the background and is not changed. however, on Tomcat 5.5.9 clicking on that link will cause the hello.txt file to be displayed within the browser itself (ie. it does not use Notepad.exe) what i want is for Tomcat 5.5.9 to invoke Notepad.exe to handle the txt file. i am using the same browser for both scenarios so it is not a browser setting. i have tried deleting the mime-mapping for the txt extension but it does not help. from my testing, the only thing different is the Tomcat server. does anyone know how to control this type of behavior regarding web requests for resources? thanks in advance, woodchuck __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
