Re: MW and Webstar

Hi,

I tried to reply to your previous msg on the Logo Forum and via direct
email but I guess they didn't get through

I don't know Webstar personally but most web servers behave alike enough
for me to make some educated guesses.

When I load the webpage
http://www.mtlakes.org/ww/proj/t/vote/heart/heart.htm
in Netscape it says it's loading the player then I get a blank page. If
I load the heart.mw2 file directly again the same thing happens. If I
look in NS cache there is no .mw2 file there.

If I do the same in Internet explorer basically the same things happen
however when I look in IE's cache I see the heart.mwr file as well as
three other files (more on this in a second). The heart.mw2 file isn't
really that. If I try to copy it out of the cache I get a file system
error and if I try to open it the player ignores it.

Now for those three other files. They are:
mgi.erro$type=Bug
mgi.error$type=Caution
mgi.error$type=None
The url's for all three files are
http://www.mtlakes.org/ww/proj/vote/heart/(filename as above)

So what does all this mean. When I've seen situations like this before
it has almost always been that the server isn't configured for that mime
type or else there is some kind of security situation in the server
concerning that mimetype.

Hopefully you can use this info either with the manuals for the server
or by passing it along to your service folks (failing that you can
probably find some kid in your school who could fix this in a minute or
two :-) )

Good luck, regards

Ps the schools computer pages look real good. You should think about
joining the Logo Users Ring for those pages.
