Randall Schulz <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<- As for konqueror, It looks so decided that the browser should appoint the file-type only when there is no extension. Without any extension, the browser shows the correct type, while with presence of an extension, it follows it. Last but not least, when konqueror finds a mismatch between extension and the real content, adds a line in the file-properties tab which shows the actual content... may have you noticed it yet? I think once I said: "This has a disadvantage: The speed of checking file-formats by user becomes slow, because, you have to get properties of all suspicious files. I wish it was adjustable." Nautilus retains its extension-ignorance policy. Thank you for your notice, Bahram Alinezhad, Rudehen, Tehran, Iran. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
