in thread Page Isn't Working Right Under PerlRun And 2 More Questions

I've downloaded tgz files from some sites & have had to rename them to a .zip in order for winzip (on my XP box) to be able to access them.
In one case, the final extension (tgz) just had to be dropped, & it worked.

    Aim9b,

    I tried the rename and WinZip gave a 'File Corrupt' message. I re-downloaded Dojo and Winzip and it worked with the original Dojo filename (dojo-release-1.0.0.tar.gz I think). I hadn't considered that there was something wrong with my copy of WinZip. Thanks Aim9b.

      Glad to hear you've solved it. Here's the "nested" issue I had back in Aug of this year...

      I had to rename the perldoc.tar.tar to perldoc.tgz (based on some previous perl surfing)& WinZip 8.0 opened it & found 1 file inside "perldoc.tar", I extracted it to a \perl_dev\doc folder & then Winzip extracted the 1,213 html/pdf/css/gif/js files. Drug a shortcut to my tool bar & I am good to go. Thanks.
