I have a www site hosted by a web hotel. The web hotel is running a Windows
FontPage server (I believe).
I am also running an Apache Windows server at home.
On my Apache server I have an simple test.exe which just displays "Hello World"
(the source code is listed at the bottom of this message).
When I open the page http://localhost/cgi-bin/test.exe (or via www) when Apache
is serving I get a page with "Hello World" as expected.
But when I open the page http://www.mypage/test.exe when FrontPage is serving I
get a page with download instruction on the test.exe.
Or when I open a simple htm file at http://www.mypage/testing.htm I get nothing
but an empty page. The source for testing.htm is below.
What am I doing wrong?
