This time I'm trying to set up my client (Netscape, but I've tried
Mosaic as well) to automatically start the SGI Inventor viewer,
ivview, when confronted with a file with a .iv extension. So I have my
.mailcap set up as follows:
graphics/x-inventor; ivview %s
and in .mime.types
graphics/x-inventor iv
I have a page called OpenInventor.html containing some links to .iv
files.
When I run
netscape ~/public_html/OpenInventor.html
everything works fine, however running
netscape http://www.yorvic.york.ac.uk/OpenInventor.html
results in the Inventor file being displayed _as text_ in the Netscape
window.
Does anyone know what is going on, and why there should be this
apparent difference between local files and the same file expresses as
a URL?
Glenn.
