What happens depends on the Content-Type with which the server delivers |
| 18 |
the file. Here is an example. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
http://www.triffids.de/pub/blend/ |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Both files are identical text files, but hm.blend1 comes with text/plain |
| 23 |
and hm.blend2 comes with text/hafi. The last is unknown *g*, so it will |
| 24 |
be asked what to do. text/plain is well known and the browser will |
| 25 |
display its content. |

Look at the Content-Type of your *.blend. One way to do this is with |
| 31 |
HEAD which is part of libwww-perl. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
hafi@i5 ~ $ HEAD http://www.triffids.de/pub/blend/hm.blend2 |
