The MIME type isn't being set correctly...the browser doesn't understand what to do with those files.
As far as I know, you can tell tomcat about MIME types in your web.xml like this: <mime-mapping> <extension>wml</extension> <mime-type>text/vnd.wap.wml</mime-type> </mime-mapping> John Turner [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 27, 2002 12:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: MS Power Point and Excel Hi, I have ppt and xls files inside a Tomcat protected folder (using FORM-BASED security). They all come up gibberish. If I move those files outside of the secured area, they come up fine. Any idea, suggestion? Bao-Ha Dam Bui [EMAIL PROTECTED] S.
