What file extensions are served directly to the web using my scripts.mit.edu account?
When a file with one of the following extensions 1) is underneath your web_scripts directory and 2) is not protected by a .htaccess file, it will be served directly to the web using your scripts.mit.edu account (you may want to read this description of what files your account can access). In other words, you do not need to make files with the following extensions world-readable in order for them to be served directly to the web:
css doc gif htm html ico jar jpeg jpg js mp3 pdf png ppt ps swf tar tgz tif tiff xml xsl xls
