How can I publish pptx on my web

[Roshlin]

Hi friends,
I've uploaded a pptx presentation on my web to share with my friends, first
when I clicked on the link it downloaded as a zip file with xml files,
checked on the web and found a solution to add the pptx mime type on my
server. Now the file download as ppsx (I uploaded as pptx) and when I try to
open it, I get an error. Both when I open it dierectly and when I save to
harddisk and open later.

If I zip the file it works fine, but I would like to publish in pptx format.
is it possible.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Steve,

The error message I get is,
Power Point can not open file.pptx because it does not have a valid format
or extension, check that the file is not corrupt and has a valid extension.

The file is ppsx, it is opening as pptx, it starts Power Point and not the
viewer, I've enven tried, unlocking the file is the properties (file
downloaded from internet..)

File uploaded with front page 2003, downloaded with IE6.

The mime type code on my server is
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation
extension ppsx pptx

Also tried uploading with FTP in binary mode, same problem

Any other suggestion,

Thanks for your quick response.

Hi Steve,

That did the job, I changed the mime types on the server. and now it
downloads correctly. Only one small issue, If I click open it opens in Power
point but if I click save and then open it opens in the viewer, which is
correct and the option I would like to have.

any idea,... you mentioned that it should always run on the viewer

Thanks for your help.
