AMS 2.4 and Powerpoint Uploading.

I cannot seem to upload .ppt or powerpoint files?
Submit article, select file,
Next screen shows error uploading file.

I tried adding the mime type to class.mimetype.php
and added it to $permittedtypes array variable.

still not working

Any ideas?

Is this an XOOPS problem or a AMS 2.4 issue? I want to be sure to post to the proper forum.

Re: AMS 2.4 and Powerpoint Uploading.

Are you trying to show the powerpoint within the article or just attach it? I have found it much easier to show powerpoint files after converting to flash with Open Office. Building Microsoft compatability within a XOOPS module from what I understand is very hard. You can see a rough example powerpoint converted to flash Here.

HTH.

I wanted to just attach it.

I will have many people uploading all types of files.
We want to use it as a competitive intelligence web site.

I did post this on the AMS website. He said he was using the default uploading program and had the same problem.

So I figured I would ask here if someone knew about it.

I like your option, but my windows users would get confused.
