Re: download file

Hi

You will need to upload your pdf .. log into your control panel, go into your public_html directory (the folder for your main domain) and once inside choose to upload file - browse through your computer - locate the pdf on your computer - upload the pdf - take note of its name - you will need to apply the link exactly as it is written on the pdf document ..if the document is called *****s.pdf - the link would be http://www.yourdomain.ca/*****s.pdf .. on your webpage you might write ***** recipies and then apply the link as above on the text .. set the target for this link to _blank... this will allow the pdf to be open and closed without losing your website .. you might also consider adding a small note to users that to view this document the adobe reader will be required, you could even supply a link to this reader .. most everyone does have it, but there are always a few without it .. or unfamiliar with it ..

good luck, any troubles be sure to post back..
