ArmandDiablo Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Hi, I'm new here and also new at building websites. Thanks to the Website Builders it makes it easier. I added songs to my website so people can download them but when I click on them the Music Player pops up rather than the download window. I have to right click and save as in order to download it. How can I just click on it and have the download window appear? Thank you.Armand DIablo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FirefoxRocks Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 If you are using HTML, in your links you can do this: <a href="myMusicFile.mp3" type="application/octet-stream">My music file</a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmandDiablo Posted March 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) Hi Firefox, thanks for responding. I put the code but when I click on the link it still pops up the Windows Media Player, and what I'm looking for is the Download window. the one that says "save" "Open" "cancel" this one.. thank you Edited March 1, 2010 by ArmandDiablo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescientist Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 I've used PHP before to force a download box similar to that. You can also instruct users to "right-click" and "save as" on the links too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
