Hey all, this is a bit off topic but I thought I'd post here as
somebody may know what the problem is.

I've ported my web stuff to a new host and now the links to the matlab
code no longer work. Specifically, if you go to the bottom of:

http://www.ericjacobsen.org/fe2/fe2.htm

and try to get any of the matlab source files it claims the page
doesn't exist (at least, that's what it does when I try it). I've
double, triple, quadruple checked that the files are there, even
deleted and reloaded them once, but it can't find them. The file
names match the hrefs in the fe2.htm source.

If you go to Peter K's site with the previous code on it at

http://home.comcast.net/~kootsoop/freqalgs.htm

he uses slightly different html code but the idea is the same, and it
works fine even on my browser.

This stuff used to work, it just seems that it's broken lately and I'm
pretty confused as to why. Any help is appreciated.

Eric,

If you use something like Dreamweaver then the root reference may have been
perturbed. It's happened to me! Now, that doesn't explain why the link
appears to point to where you want it but I can't tell where you want it for
sure!

I see:
www.ericjacobsen.org/fe2/inttst3.m etc. so either the files are really
there or not one would have to imagine.

What happens if you ftp to the site and look at the directory? Oh, yeah,
you already deleted and added them back.... hmmmmm.. Not much help here I
guess.

Maybe these files aren't marked for reading..... now *that* would cause this
to happen.

The links seem broken, but I suspect it's a file permission issue.

If I try:

http://www.ericjacobsen.org/fe2/inttst3.m

I get the standard 404 error from Microsoft. If I try something random:

http://www.ericjacobsen.org/fe2/sdfds

then I get an error generated by your ISP.

So I suspect that the files are there, they've just not got the right
permissions.

See if the files (or the fe2 directory) has given read permissions to
the appropriate process / user.

HTH,

Peter K.

the .m file extension for something else and it does have different
permissions.

That's a thought: try changing the extension to ".txt" and see what happens.

You could also embed the files into HTML. IIRC the keyword is <CODE

and it just prints anything inside verbatim and in a fixed-width font.
I cannot remember the details, but I know it's there.

I think you're talking about the <pre> tag (IIRC, that stands for
pre-formatted).

Yup, that's what I use on my .m files:

% <PRE>
function omegahat = discperiod(signal)

[... HTML strangeness ...]


Also, on your other FE page,
http://www.ericjacobsen.org/intpfigs.mcd
is not there.

Perhaps the server is configured only to deliver file types
it knows about?

Yes, the .m files in question use the pre-formatted escape indicators
just like Peter has shown, so that's not the problem (it used to
work).

I haven't had a chance to get back to this but can try some of these
things. I'd like to leave the files with the .m extension since
people can right-click if they so desire from the sourcing page.

My news server went off its meds for a few days, too, and I'm just now
getting back to being able to read this stuff.

OKay, it's fixed now, but in a cheesy manner. I changed the file
extensions to .txt as suggested and now it works. So the webhost has
some special consideration for .m extensions....grrr...
