OK, I bet that what's happening is you are uploading the content from

Mac to your server, and from PC to your server -- that is, you're

uploading directly from te machine which created the content, yes?


If this is the case, set the FTP upload on the PC side of things to

*binary*, not ASCII. (Check the PC's FTP program's docs for more on how

to set the transfer to binary.)


That should fix it.
