Re: Browser tries to download program -- WEB400

here is what i use and it works :
0001.00 /$top
0002.00 Content-type: text/html
0003.00
0004.00 <html>
0005.00 <head><title>Administration</title></head>
0006.00 <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="0">
......
.....
there are some difference between apache and ibm, i had a .pgm of 11 char
that worked under native and NOT under apache.
it seems that apache is more "sensible".
