I am curious how you tested whether transferring a plain text file( ascii file ) was changed in any way when transferred in binary and with that box checked or not checked etcSuperbQ wrote:Huh? I actually TRIED and TESTED the different settings before writing those facts.
Why bother believing me? Install FileZilla and try it yourself. Takes less than a minute.
Why didn't the developer gray out the group box? Heh, maybe he was lazy. Who cares.
just because the file was transferred and still works does not mean it was not changed during transfer in some way.
Did you also test if transferring the files with no extensions that phpbb creates for the attachments are changed in any way when trnasferred in ascii or binary with the box checked or unchecked etc.
if so, how?
I don't know how to test all of those things for sure and was wondering if you did , or if you just assumed your facts because the files still worked after you transferred them.
thanks,
