File download

[9 slug]

How do I make a button prompt someone to download a file?

For emample:
Click here to download MP3

You can't actually allow an mp3 to be dwnloaded...i.e. saved to your harddrive as such, it will always try to open it using a fitting plugin...(in this case QT or something like that). For this reason it is a good idea to zip it up and then offer it using the following code, for a button with the instance name dlMusic_btn.

dlMusic_btn.onRelease=function(){
getURL("myMP3.zip");
}
