    Direct downloading

    Hiya. :)

    Just wondering if there was a way for people to download my (perfectly legal) mp3 files without having to right click and "save target as" ??

    In short, they just click the link, as normal, and it automaticaly goes to the "open - save" dialog box, rather than it loading into a browser window.

    Hope my question makes sence. Cheers.

    Brian.

    You can put it into a .zip folder, that will have it download the file just by clicking the link

    Register/Login Script
    Do you use a Password Protected Directory? Need a way to allow users to make their own account, try my .htaccess Login Script

        Thanks very much for your suggestions. Your replies are appreciated.

        But won't this just download the file in .zip format? Then the recipiant would have to unzip this their end? Is this the only way I can do this?

        Perhaps there is a way around this using php or something?

        Does anyone know of a script I could use?

        Cheers
