[PHP] rft file problems

by teddon 2009-04-04T01:04:37+00:00
Hi gang:
I'm trying to provide an ".rft" file via a link on one of my sites, like so:
Mid Term
but clicking the link results in a "Not Found" error.
However, if I change the suffix to .txt, then the file is found, but
not presented correctly.
What's up with that and what can I do to fix it?
Thanks,
tedd

Just go to webbytedd.com. There's an example there. (Sorry, I couldn't
resist!)
Are you sure you don't mean ".rtf", as in Rich Text Format? If
misspelled that way, it could explain the problem.

Paul:
Bingo -- that was the problem. Sometimes we're tripped up by the
simplest problems. I just couldn't see the difference between rft and
rtf in my editor.
Considering it was the first time I was working with rtf files, I
over-thought it might have been a php init issue.
Thanks,
tedd
