Re: FLASH: mac dl question

Hi Tirah,


Anytime you attach a file to Email or post on a Web site and that file

does not have its MIME mapped you can run into problems. 


Have the originator resend the FLA compressed as a zip file. All normal

Email programs and Web sites are setup to handle zip files. Check the

exact size (i.e. 10,204 bytes not 10K) both as an FLA and in its zip

compressed version before sending it and verify the same sizes are

received and decompressed. This way if there is a problem you will have

all the facts needed to locate the problem. And unless you are going

from Mac to Mac make sure you are using Binary and not Mac-Binary.
