How To Host .ahf File on Web So It's Downloadable?

I watched it, and all I saw was your squad talking about humble, not humbles actions themselves.

That is strange..

Click on it and I also get the notepad with garbage, but 'save target as' works fine.

I took the liberty of putting it on one of my webhosts and get this:

http://www.ka4zzq.com/Nightmares/films/Snaphook_Incident.ahf

See if that works any differently.

Holy Schneikies!  Sweet!  What did you have to do to get it come up as the original .ahs file?  Everthing I chose on "Save Target As" came up only recognizeable as an ".htm" file (which when opened was just code gobbledy-gook)



Thanks (and QSL)

When you right click and Save Target As, the dialog box comes up "Save As".  In that window change the "Save File Type As" to All Files.  This is located at the bottom of that window.  Then in the Filename box above that change the filename to Snaphook_Incident.ahf (add the .ahf).  Save the document, then open the file.

Like Fulmar says, this will make the 'save target as' work.

As far as how to make it prompt you to save or run from my link, you might want to check how you upload it to your website, or see what sort of protocols they have in place for ftp and such.  Which pretty much takes me out of my knowledge base.

Did you upload it through an HTML editor? 

Something to check.

Are you using IE or Firefox APDrone?  I'm on a work computer that uses IE and I got the default HTML save as, but I haven't tried it on my home PC where I use Firefox.

IE.

I went out and did the save-target-as and the file got saved as xxx.ahf.htm 

Went back to save-target-as and saw the drop down box, selected 'all files' and stuck the .ahf on the end.

when notpad pulls up, hightlight everything in it and save it as an .ahf file.

should work

Naw...I uploaded it through an FTP program.

It's VERY wierd on my computer that where ever I saved it to looked on it as an "htm" file.  Had the IE logo on it and everything.

When I went back and changed the "how do you WANT to open this file", "and always use this program to open these kinds of files" it worked just fine.

Whenever it sees a file it doesn't recognize, it goes runnin' home to mama.  Lesson learned.

Thank you all very much for the helpful replies!

I have a vague recollection that one may run into this problem if you FTP a film as ASCII instead of binary.
