downloads

i know this may be the most stupid question ever to cross this web board, but how do you make it where someone can download a file off of your page, say from site you uploaded them to.

sorry for my stupidity, but i am a beginner.

Re: downloads

Just create an "a href" tag that points to the file, just like you would a webpage.Say, for example, you wanted to link a file on your own site in the same directory as your html file, you'd have:<a href="file.exe">File.ExE</a>If it was on this site, you'd have:<a href="http://info-x.co.uk/file.exe">File.ExE on Info-X</a>God I hope the less-than signs work...

Let's try again

Using escape codes didn't work, so I'll just post the code without the ">" and "a href="htpp://www.domain.com/file.exe"It's just like a normal HTML link.

Hmm, yes, that might be a problem...

If I remember correctly, there was a possible problem with Here you don't copy the original message into the textarea, so it might work without problems - you'd have to walk through the code and check to be sure...There are still a few potential problems with allow_html ON, though.
