Hi all :

<A HRef=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"MyFile.doc">Click Here For File</A>
</BODY>
When I put the above in, on a client side page, it'll open the word doc up in a new Internet Explorer window on the users pc.
I guess this is a server side problem, but how can I get it so when the user clicks a link, the server sends the file to them please ?
You know when the sites give you a dialog box for where to put the file, then an all singing, all dancing MS progressbar for how long this'll take.
Thanks !!
cross posting, sorryIE can open doc files, if you want to send the file either zip it or instruct the interested party to right-click on the link and chose "save target as".
Regards,
Kevin
