Re: FTP transfer from site

Hi Janet!

Nothing special...just create a link that specifies the path and filename;

e.g.  <.a href="filename.ext">Download File<./a>
(ignore the periods in my example)

To further explain, suppose you had a file called "patch1.zip"...and it
resided in a directory called "patches" which was one level down from the
directory of the current html page, then your tag would look like this
(again, ignore the periods):

<.a href="./patches/patch1.zip">Download Patch1 Here<./a>

If the file resides in the same directory as the current html page, then it
would look like this:

<.a href="patch1.zip">Download Patch1 Here<.a>

These examples assume that your file has the ".zip" extension. If the file
is not a "zipfile", use whatever extension you need.

HTH,

Mike
