Dumb question....but

How do I enable users to download docs of my web page? Is it a behavior or an <a href> type code?

Thanks,

Hi Hewissa,

Yes you can use <a href="file.doc">text</a> to create a link to your document, just select any text you want to convert into a link to a document and turn it into a link to a document. Use the folder in the property inspector and navigate to the document.

If you have a folder of documents with document names in a database you can use the same method except you select datasource to pick the link source from instead of the filesystem.

That is how I let visitors of our website be able to download the documents that others upload, they can upload whatever they want. And anyone can download anything, security is another matter.

Hope that helps you

with regards,
