FLASH: mime types and server stuff

[Lamont, Sarah]

hello everyone...


It has been a loooonnng time since I last used this list! If anyone

remembers me, hello! For anyone who doesn't, nice to meet you.


I know it might be rude to start off my subscription to the list with an

urgent question, but.... 


I was wondering if someone could explain to me about mime types. I have a

problem because a site I made was recently uploaded, and the homepage, which

is done with Flash, does not show up. The server uploaded .swf to the mime

types, thinking this would solve the problem, but it doesn't. I used Colin

Moock's sniffer to redirect un-flashers to an un-flashed homepage, so it

shouldn't be a problem with the user's browser. Does anyone have any

information they think could help me? I'm at my wits end.


thanks a lot,
