In the rewrite log I see the flag doing it's thing: ...rewrite index.php -> /sesp/static/cache/sesp-apprv.csv ...remember /sesp/static/cache/sesp-apprv.csv to have MIME-type 'application/ms-excel' but Content-Type comes back as text/plain instead of application/ms-excel. I'm wondering if the PT flag is causing other modules to override the T= flag. What do you think?
PT might be the culprit. You can perhaps avoid PT by rewriting to a complete unix path. But the problem might also be that T= doesn't work in .htaccess files. I haven't tried it myself, so I couldn't say.
RewriteRule (index.php|^)$ %{ENV:SESP_LOC}/static/cache/sesp-apprv.csv
[T=application/ms-excel,PT,L]
At this point, I'm thinking, leave the content type as the default text/plain. Let the browsers
handle content-disposition "attachment; filename=sesp-apprv.csv" as they see fit ;-)
Why don't you just unconditionally set .csv to the right content-type: AddType application/ms-excel .csv Joshua. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
