Re: FLASH: MIME and servers

[John Croteau]

Hi Karin,


Your server uses Apache software. So you most likely can set the MIME

for your directory.

Look and see if there is already a file named .htacess in your

directory, gery unlikely. If there is add the MIME to it on a new line

in that file.

Instructions are at the bottom of this page.

Just use a txt editor and add the line of code

AddType application/x-shockwave-flash   swf

and name the file .htaccess.


Unless your ISP has disabled .htaccess this will work.

Note, if it doesn't work it won't hurt anything.
