java applet uploads

The Beer Baron · 2004-02-15 22:58:53

I tried uploading a .class file onto my webspace (a funky little applet that I wanted on one of my pages) but I was told it was an invalid file type. So I was right- boards has no class ;) Seriously tho wtf? Am I to assume the reason for this is a security problem or is it just that the server doesn't know what in the hell…

The webspace only allows file extensions that it has been explicitly told to allow. If people want that list to be added to, then they gots to request it.
