There is a download problem on GPX files under windows xp and Firefox. Firefox thinks it is a html file and the .gpx ending of the file is lost. If you do not enter the extension manuel the downloaded file is named Tour-xx.gpx.html. With InternetExplorer or under Linux with FF everything works fine. If anybody has the same problem, let me know. Maybe it depends only on my server settings.

Ok, i allready thought this is a problem of my XAMPP installation on this f...ing windows laptop. On my linux workstation everything works fine. Maybe it is time to install linux on the laptop, too

Something i didn't noticed before. When i download a file (gpx or kml) the filename is tour-xx.xxx The extension is ok, gpx or kml respectively but the filename is different from the filename i 've uploaded. I don't know if this is a bug OR A FEATURE! hahahahaha, as you say on your signature On win XP with firefox and xampp.

Hehe, thats a feature, indeed. And not only the name is different, the whole file is. The downloaded files have your sitename, username of the autor, link to the track and the description included.
