I have my epubs available on my website for download from a public dropbox folder for anyone who visits my site (as well as through Apple iBooks). This will end on 3/15. If I just make the files a shared file, the browser doesn't know how to handle them properly to download them like a .zip file or to offer to open in iBooks from the tablet. I tried to alter my web.config file based on an old previous thread I found.
mimeMap fileExtension=".epub" mimeType="application/epub+zip
But it didn't change anything. Anyone have a suggestion?
