Peter, I believe your browser has unzipped the document on the fly. However, your browser has not renamed the file ".tar". I just checked the link and what I get is a gzipped tar file. I've seen this type of message for other specifications, and in each case, the answer is that the browser does the unzipping silently. _ Ian Peter Statham wrote: > Hi. > > the file: > www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-CSS2-19980512/css2.tgz > linked to from: > www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/ > is a tar file not a gzipped tar file and should have a .tar extention instead of .tgz, also the page describes it as a "HTML as a gzip'ed tar file". > > I'm not sure if this is a mistake only on this page or if it is on others as well. > > Also could you tar the whole directory instead of just the files, so that tar -xf css2.tar creates a dir css2 in the current directory containing the files? > > Thanks. > > *Stats - 04/03/02 > > _____________________________________________________________ > Sign up for FREE web based email from UfieMail at http://ufie.org/ > > _____________________________________________________________ > You deserve a better email address!
