HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Re: Custom Download Link Possible?

« on: May 10, 2009, 07:36:59 PM »

I added the ToG template and while I was doing that rejetto's suggestion came in.  So I kept the new template and did the find & replace option as suggested so best of both worlds. 

IT WORKS!

Thank you both for your suggestions & help.  I have been trying to figure out how to do this for weeks now.  Should have just come here in the first place.

Thanks again.   

Think I'll have to make a donation to this great software.  (Edit: In fact I just did  )

Any specific place I should insert the code?  Sorry I really do not know any HTML programming.  I know how to edit the HTML template from the menu options but do not know where your code should go / replace.

Little more help please?

HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Custom Download Link Possible?

« on: May 09, 2009, 08:57:20 PM »

Love the program.  Made it so much easier to transfer files to / from home when needed.

Have a question I hope can be answered.  I originally found HFS when I was searching for a simple to use server to transfer eReader type ebooks to my iPhone.  In the previous versions of the eReader software it would allow the standard links your software made to download the books into the eReader application.  Now, due to restrictions by Apple, they cannot do this internally in their reader and so have to kick you out to the Safari browser to download the files.  The problem is that Safari does not recognize the PDB file format and fails on the download.  The solution is the make the link that downloads the files be ereader://serveraddress/folder/book.pdb instead of the usual http://serveraddress/folder/book.pdb.  That way Safari will know to kick the download the the eReader software.

My question:  Is it possible to use a template or something that will make the links automatically be ereader:// for files with PDB extensions?  Or if that is not possible make ANY file links be ereader:// instead of http:// ?

I know nothing of templates and was hoping for some assistance with this.  Is this at all possible with HFS?

Thanks in advance for your help!
