Test new download script

Hi Everyone,

The new version of Textkit is right around the corner. If you don’t mind,
can you please test this download link:
http://new.textkit.com/learn/ID/169/author_id/66/

I’m on WinXP and feedback from Mac Os would be helpful.

thanks
jeff

The link works from WinXP, but the downloaded version of the book only has 170 pp. (instead of 175) and no index, though I’m not sure that this isn’t the way the original is (?)

Hi Jeff,

Worked perfectly on my WinXP and the pdf downloaded had 175 pages. I’m using Adobe Reader 7.07.

Best regards,

Andrus

the page count isn’t correct with the records yet. I have rebuilt the database from the ground up and a big task has been moving through the records and updating the data since the structure and data types have changed.

thanks for testing!

Jeff

Download works fine, Mac-ishly speaking.

I was looking stupidly at the page numbers on the actual book instead of the ones on Adobe! It is in fact a 175 pp. document. :blush:

I should have added, with Safari.

Hello Jeff. The new download link worked fine for me on the closest I can come to a Mac (OS 10.3.9 image hosted on one of my XP workstations via PearPC 0.4pre). Safari is 1.3.2 (v312.5).

In fact, I’m posting this reply via PearPC/OS X/Safari. All 175 pages were accessible via whatever default PDF viewer comes with OS X (i.e. I only use this setup occasionally to verify some of our webapps for Mac-based customers).

Hope this is close enough for testing purposes.

Best,
Ron

Works perfectly with my linux (Ubuntu)/Firefox combination.

really great feedback everyone - thank you!

Jeff

Even with my old Windows 98, it worked fine :slight_smile:

Looks good to me!

Looks Good to me on OSX(Tiger) on Safari. I thought this was funny though…

Uhoh…now we all know! I thought it was cool that you spell color like a Brit too.

Actually, Jeff, you should update one small thing: “ll Textkit downloads require Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0 or above.” That’s not quite true. Current versions of OSX’s Preview open the compressed PDFs just fine and dandy.

Gee…I guess that’s just another reason to own a Mac huh?? :smiley: :smiley:

ghostview and evince (two linux viewers) work just fine with them, too, for that matter.

Worked perfectly.
