Files not downloading properly

6 years 2 weeks ago
#77835
Am creating a website for a club. Have added files like club schedule to the public section. However when checking the links before publicising the website, I find the links will download but not open properly....it gives a message "AJAX LOADING SPINNER"

the file path is as follows:
speakingoflevin.toastmastersclubs.org/jd...October-February.xls

Hi Brian
Initially using IE Explorer, but when using Firefox I get an invalid format message for an excel file

The file path is incorrect. It is an xlsx file, not xls ... details matter. Perhaps I should create an error message for this scenario, but the incorrect file name in your posted link is likely the cause of your issue.

xls:
speakingoflevin.toastmastersclubs.org/jd...October-February.xls

xlsx:
speakingoflevin.toastmastersclubs.org/jd...ctober-February.xlsx
