Web browsers seem to do this. However, when testing "MS Web Folders" and "Cadaver" I have found they transmit the files with the actual line termination encoding of the file. This is not a problem when using something like dreamweaver, front page, Netscape Composer, since they "render" the HTML in a layout and do not care about line termination. I have not verified this is the case with Goliath or the one built-into Mac OS X with the iDisk. -ME -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCS/CM$/IT$/LS$/S/O$ !d--(++) !s !a+++(-----) C++$(++++) U++++$(+$) P+$>+++ L+++$(++) E W+++$(+) N+ o K w+$>++>+++ O-@ M+$ V-$>- !PS !PE Y+ !PGP t@-(++) 5+@ X@ R- tv- b++ DI+++ D+ G--@ e+>++>++++ h(++)>+ r*>? z? ------END GEEK CODE BLOCK------ decode: http://www.ebb.org/ungeek/ about: http://www.geekcode.com/geek.html _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
