I have...

I installed the <hostfs2008> upgrade this morning primarily to fix the 
longstanding date stamp issues. Like you I have discovered that a 
number of files have lost their RISC OS file type information in the 
process (.htm .html .png .jpg .gif at the last count) and have been 
typed as text although here the original file name and extension have 
been retained. This only applies when the files have been viewed in 
filer windows on the RISC OS side, they seem to be untroubled on the 
XP side. What is really wierd is that I have found one directory of 14 
.png files where one of the files has retained its RISC OS file type 
and the reason is that I misnamed it cc4/pmg in error when I created 
the file, from which I surmise that the problem is caused by the file 
naming rather than the RISC OS file typing.

After I have corrected several hundred files on my local copies of 
half a dozen sites I shall have a poke around to see what the problem 
is.
