I don't think you did a proper MIME test.

The MIME is still not set despite what your service provider has said.

http://www.canfieldstudios.com/flash3/maskeras/index.html

It reads as File MIME Type: text/html

Your server seems to be Apache/1.2.6 Red Hat on Linux.


To test MIME you must use either use the Netscape method:

http://www.macromedia.com/support/flash/ts/documents/mimetype_check.htm

Note the swf file must be completely loaded before a proper reading is

made.


Or upload my Test files (or similar):

http://www.FlashCentral.com/Tech/Server/MIME_Test.htm

This works for all Flash browsers except MSIE 3+ Win95/98/NT


If the only browser you have is  MSIE 3+ Win95/98/NT then you have to

rely on someone else to verify that the MIME is set.


Depending on the server software and procedure MIME settings may require

restarting the Web Service or rebooting the computer before the MIME

mapping takes effect.


BTW it works on my Netscape 4 but on my Netscape 3 there is no picture

and brings up a series of 4 error boxes from Packager. Just because it

works for you doesn't mean it is OK. There is no way o predict which

browsers will be affected and how.
