Dr. Chip, if you have access to put an .htaccess file in that directory, you can correct the first problem with this line:

AddType text/x-vimball .vba

I've loaded that a file with that line onto http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim .. does it work? A simple left-click doesn't fix things for me (seamonkey); I need to shift-left-click.

No, it doesn't appear to have worked. It may be a problem with the permissions on that file (should be world-readable). But I should have also pointed out that many shared-hosting sites don't allow changes to configuration via .htaccess files, so it might not be possible to fix it via that mechanism.

Your host also appears to be using an old version of Apache (1.3.42, which is the End-of-Life [EOL] release for the 1.3 seriesāļ™). But I don't think that would prevent this from working (if .htaccess is allowed at all).

I've tried other variants of things in .htaccess files but it never seemed to work. The permission on .htaccess, btw, is rw-r--r--, so that isn't the problem, and so I suspect that my host is preventing .htaccess from being useful. I may switch to a Joomla-based system on a different host sometime in the future; I'm still (slowly) working on the site. Hopefully these issues will then get cleared up.

Chip Campbell
