WEB SERVERS
IBM® Lotus® Domino® is compatible with clients that support the HTTP 1.1 specification. The clients may be implemented in a variety of ways -- for example, as browser plugins, applets, or stand-alone programs.
Attached files must be decompressed so that clients that support byte-range serving can access them. When you attach a file, you must deselect the Compress option. To verify that an existing attachment is decompressed, from an IBM® Lotus® Notes® client choose File - Document Properties, select the $FILE item, and verify that the Compression Type property is NONE.
Example of downloading a file from the server's file system
The file INSTALL.EXE is located in a directory that is enabled for downloading using a URL-mapping. A GetRight 3.1 client can use the following URL to download the file:
If the download is interrupted, the client can restart the download from the point where it was interrupted.
Example of downloading a file attachment
A user can download a PDF file one page at a time if the PDF file is attached to a document and the user has set the configuration option in Adobe Acrobat to download a page at a time. Downloading one page at a time can greatly improve performance if the user is interested in only a portion of a large file. For example, a user accesses the PROJECT.PDF file using the following URL:
