Download link from website.

[goldengob]

Hi
I'm trying to create a link on my site so that people can just click on it in my absence and download a zipped ebook or file etc...
I already posted this question in the General Questions Section, but the reply I got back was all a little bit too technical for a newbie like myself. Can anyone please explain this technique in simple terms or even better still, give me the code I would need. After all I have achieved so far as a newbie, I can't believe that a simple download link can really be all that difficult...or can it?

Much appreciated!

Thanks in Advance

there is no difference between links for pages and ebbok whenever some 1 will click link the ebook,user will be asked to save the ebook in the computer

u can use this code
<a href="http://www.example.com">ebookLink</a>

here you have to replace

[example.com...]

with your own link
and Ebooklink with your own text which you want to sho off

please excuse me if you this already but this is what i thought to tell from your query

YOU ARE A STAR! I've just tried it and it worked. You seriously won't believe how long I have struggled with this simple thing. My problem was that I was reading too deep into the problem rather than thinking simple.

Thanks again!

Much Much Appreciated.
