Hi

Using CDML I want to create a form where clicking on it downloads a file. I know how to do it as a URL but I want to use a form to suppress the path name from being displayed. The path name to the file will be along the lines of:

http://127.0.0.1:443/other/archive/[FMP-currenttoken].pdf

Alternatively, is there something you can add to a web page that will force the browser (specifically Safari) to download the file rather than open it in a browser window?

Any advice gratefully accepted!!

Whether the browser displays or downloads depends on the file type. So you may have to fiddle with that if there are problems.

Downloading a file without exposing the URL may be a bit difficult. One possible way would be to use PHP to "stream" the file through a script!

Good Luck.

Hi, m! With OS X Panther, you can easily create .zip archives (FILE > CREATE ARCHIVE) right from the desktop of anything you want someone to download. I usually do so for folders of data, but you can do it for single files, too. It's good for sending attachments through e-mail, too.
