Hi Bill,

That's pretty much what Chris said, too. I'll give it a try and let you know.

Hey Mark,

I sympathize with you, it should be easy to ask them just to "right click", or "control click" but most of my family just doesn't grasp the concept any better than I do the GameCube keypad commands my son tells me to use when he's whupping me on a Football game.

I think if you filter the link through a cgi script you can change the header to force the browser to download the file, or you might just create a copy of each file, zip them up, and create a link to them.

Kindest Regards,

Hi,

I have a picture gallery I building for my family. When a movie or picture is displayed, I want them to be able to save it. But... if I just provide a link in the coding to the actual file, it will open up in the browser window and be displayed. Is there a way to have download, either automatically or by a "Save As..." dialog box, the file rather then displaying it? I hope that was clear. :)

Thanks,

Mark
