course dreamweaver london - Printable files on my website

Hi Duncan,

You can upload the files in whatever format they are in, and link to them in the same way you would link to a web page.

The person downloading the file will need to have the reader installed. eg. If it's a .DOC file, they'll need to have Word installed. If it's a .PDF file, they'll need to have Adobe Reader installed.

I'd recommend having a 'downloads' folder to store these files in.

The code might be something like this:
<a href="/download/form1.pdf"><img src="/image/thumbnails/form1.jpg" alt="download form 1"></a>

Granted, you may need to convert the 'forms' to a format that everyone can view (eg. .DOC or .PDF).

Also, if the forms are quite simple, you could make them as HTML files themselves, using standard HTML form elements (I'd recommend laying them out in a table so it's neat!)

Let me know how you get on. If this solves your question, please mark this post as resolved. Thanks.

Regards, Rich
