Title: Powerpoint .ppt file download
Post by: loz on November 17, 2005, 01:10:47 PM

Hi,

I've uploaded a few Powerpoint files to my website using the batch upload mod method. I've also installed the 'download' folder module to allow users to download larger image sizes using the download button. The Powerpoint files upload and display correctly but when you click on either download or zip the file opens in the browser displaying a whole load of text jargon.

I've amended includes/upload_definitions.php adding the correct MIME definition:

$mime_type_match['ppt'] = array("application/vnd", "application/mspowerpoint", "application/ms-powerpoint", "application/mspowerpnt", "application/vnd-mspowerpoint", "application/vnd.ms-powerpoint", "application/powerpoint", "application/x-powerpoint", "application/x-mspowerpoint");

I've also included 'ppt' as an allowed extension in the control panel settings page but nothing seems to solve this problem.

Please help!

Sorry, it's on a local intranet. I'm sure it's something to do with the MIME types or maybe a browser issue.

Can you attach one small .ppt file (zip it first) so we could test it?

I uploaded a ppt. file. It seems well in the gallery, but when I want too play it, the browser (firefox and IE too) finds an unknown extension. Which extension is it for the browser?
