Help with inserting a download link on a webpage   Logged in as: Guest   Printable Version All Forums >>FrontPage Specific Issues >>FrontPage Newbies >> Page: [1] Name: Message << Newer Topic  Older Topic >> Flight webster   Posts: 1 Member since: 10/30/2008   Help with inserting a download link ...  I am using FP2003. What I want to do is set up a link on a web page that will allow the viewer to click on a button that will automatically download an "exe" program that I am providing from my FTP server. I want it to either execute or save from the FTP site. I know I can "right click" a file link and save that way but I want it to be more professional.   Report Abuse |  Date: 10/30/2008 11:04:26 AM Malcolm Posts: 449 Member since: 9/30/2002 From: Texas,USA RE: Help with inserting a download l... (in reply to Flight webster)  Hello, Just link to it as you would link to a page ....make it clear however that it is an .exe they are downloading. When people click on it they are generally then given the option to Run or Save. Personally one should never "run" an .exe direct from a website if avoidable but save to computer first. _____________________________ ~~ Malc ~~   Report Abuse |  Date: 10/30/2008 11:44:59 PM Page:   [1] All Forums >>FrontPage Specific Issues >>FrontPage Newbies >> Page: [1] Jump to: Select a ForumFrontPage Talk Forums     About FrontPageTalk.Com     Forum Rules     The Water Cooler     FrontPage Talk Moderators     Critique My SiteExpression Suite Talk Forums     The Suite Spot     Expression Web Questions Talk and Chat     Expression Web Tips and Tricks     Expression Web Critiques     Expression Graphic Designer     Expression Interactive DesignerFrontPage Specific Issues     FrontPage Newbies     FrontPage Experts     FrontPage Themes and Templates     FrontPage Graphics     Specific Server / Server Extension Issues     FrontPage Tips and Tricks     FrontPage 2003     FrontPage 2002Taking FrontPage Further     FrontPage and FrontPage Cart     FrontPage and SharePoint     FrontPage and Site Build It     FrontPage and Databases     FrontPage and E-Commerce     FrontPage and "Other" Editors     FrontPage and Scripting     Newsletters You Might Enjoy     Tools You Can Use     HTML     Great Links     Making Money with FrontPage     Popups!!!???     Freelance Work     Dear Microsoft ...Product Specific     FrontPage Power Meta Toolkit New Messages No New Messages Hot Topic w/ New Messages Hot Topic w/o New Messages Locked w/ New Messages Locked w/o New Messages  Post New Thread  Reply to Message  Post New Poll  Submit Vote  Delete My Own Post  Delete My Own Thread  Rate Posts
