When you attach a file, let’s say a .zip file, in a richtext field in a Notes document, and show this document on web, the image of the attachment will be some default image I believe. I believe it is based on some client settings (?). My question is, can I somehow chnage this on the fly?

When I attach a file in a Rich Text field in a Notes document, and preview the document in a web browser, I see a GIF image in the browser that looks the same as the icon in the Notes document.The icon in the Notes document is stored in the Rich Text. To change the icon, you can probably use DXL to change the contents of the corresponding notesbitmap element.
How easy it is depends on how fly you want it. If you store a set of notesbitmap elements somewhere, and copy the one you want, it would be relatively easy.

The client attached it and this is a windows thing. IT likes to take the file extension and link it something.
But the greater question I have is what do you mean “on the fly”? And how is the “on the fly” going to be done?
Secondly I don’t think this is all platforms issue because it is only NT client which does this link. If I attach a document via a web lotusscript agent (which is different than using the client), I don’t get a “pretty” icon.
