Sorry about that --- When I enter the following text in the web browser's address field: http://<ip address>/outputfiles I get to the screen that lists the files in the directory which had an alias configuration set up in the httpd.conf file. The files that are listed have the following syntax: <outputfile>.html.<date> ie: scan1.html09-03-05 When I click on the file it displays the source code of the file. However, if I enter the following text in the web browser's address field: /home/admin/outputfiles I again get to the screen that lists the files in the directory. When I click on the file it displays its information in html format. UPDATE -- I did some further investigating, and the problem that I described originally appears to occur when using the Firefox, Opera, and Netscape web browsers. Internet Explorer does not appear to have this problem. -----Original Message----- From: Tim Burden [mailto:tim@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, March 10, 2005 11:24 AM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [users@httpd] HTML Documents Showing Up As Code Rather Than Web Page Eh? Are you doing some kind of redirect? You really need to give us some more info about what the script does and how it's all put together. For example, this: "If I bring up the file using the /<directory path name> syntax, ie: /home/<username>/outputfiles, the page comes up as it should." is completely undecipherable. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kaplan, Andrew H." <AHKAPLAN@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Apache User List (E-mail)" <users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, March 10, 2005 11:13 AM Subject: FW: [users@httpd] HTML Documents Showing Up As Code Rather Than Web Page > UPDATE -- > > I did some further investigating, and the problem that I described originally > appears to occur > when using the Firefox, Opera, and Netscape web browsers.
