I am creating a website where they have a program that they want the visitors to be able to download. How do I set up the website so the visitor can do this?</p> <p>TIA</p> <p>Brooke</p> <p>------------------<br /> Providing quality websites for businesses and individuals!<br /> <a href="http://www.cataluna.com" title="www.cataluna.com">www.cataluna.com</a></p> Fri, 10 Dec 1999 23:06:00 +0000 Brooke comment 1010973 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/html-css-and-javascript/file-downloading-how-can-users-download-files-my-site#comment-1010970 <p><img src="https://www.webmaster-forums.net/misc/smileys/smile.png" title="Smiling" alt="Smiling" class="smiley-content" /><br /> i'm probably missing the boat here, but a right mouse click on a hyerlink always works for me. </p> <p>----------<br /> <strong>My Site Got Hacked, Check It Out!</strong><br /> <a href="http://www.birminghamnet.com" class="bb-url">http://www.birminghamnet.com</a></p> Tue, 28 Sep 1999 03:56:00 +0000 fairhousing comment 1010970 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/html-css-and-javascript/file-downloading-how-can-users-download-files-my-site#comment-1010969 <p>Hi Chris!<br /> It's my understanding that it all depends on the user's browser preferences... most users will download a zip or exe file by default, so you will want to make your files in that format.</p> <p>Brian</p> <p>----------<br /> [red]<strong>Hosting prices slashed![/red]</strong><br /> <a href="http://www.infostardesign.com" class="bb-url">http://www.infostardesign.com</a></p> Tue, 28 Sep 1999 03:52:00 +0000 Brian Farkas comment 1010969 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/html-css-and-javascript/file-downloading-how-can-users-download-files-my-site#comment-1010968 <p>I've searched high and low and it seems as though no one has a definitive answer regarding scripts for allowing users to download a file from a site. One suggestion was to zip the file.<br /> I think there is a java applet or script floating around somewhere. sites like CGI-Resource Index and Download.com have these features so I know it's possible. I just haven't been able to figure it out yet. Perhaps one of you can help.</p> Tue, 28 Sep 1999 03:48:00 +0000 comment 1010968 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
