--> Homepage.mac.com Question <--

Is there a way to stop everything in my Public folder on my iTools homepage from being compressed in binhex format? I'm job hunting and want to list my homepage with my resume at Monster.com, but I suspect that all those PC users out there are not going to know what to do with a binhex compressed file. I don't know if Winzip will decompress binhex. I just want to have some PDF documents on my homepage UNCOMPRESSED. Is this possible?

chemistry_geek: The solution is super-simple. There's two ways:

1) Drop it in your Documents folder on your iDisk and give them this address (this works for other folders like "Documents" and "Music"):

http://homepage.mac.com/chemistry_geek/.Public/whatever.pdf

2) Drop it in your Sites folder on your iDisk and give them this address:

http://homepage.mac.com/chemistry_geek/whatever.pdf

It's really weird that everything is automatically binhexed through File Sharing pages, though. Too weird.
