HTML - How To Open Local File In Html

Ok still super new at this HTML thing, but I am going to be using Filezilla to access my friends index.html file for a little eding of the text.

My question is can I open the file, edit what I need and save it all within filezilla?

Or do I need to drag the index.html file to my desktop, edit, save and the drag it back to filezilla?

Hi all,
I need to have a link on my web page which allows the user to download a file on the c: drive of my web server. Basically when they click the link they will be prompted to download this file. Any ideas on how this can be done?

I tried the following on FF but it does not work...

<a href="file:///C:/testUpload/CA_P1470H_2008-1209-143322.xls">major_bob_12-09.xls</a>

Thanks in advance for any help.

I have a pdf file that is the catalog for my business.

Is there a way to make it so that i can create a link that says "view" and if people click on it, then the standard "FILE DOWNLOAD" box does not come up... and it just opens the file in a separate window.... and have a "download" link where if they click that... then it just downloads the file.

I know that i am weird... but i think it would be something that not everybody has... and something that would be kinda cool.

Thanks in advance....

Greetings all.
I have what i would think should be an easy thing to accomplish, but i just don't know how to do it...

i have a .exe that is on a usb drive which currently auto-runs when you plug the drive into a usb port...
what i want to do is have an HTML file that basically acts as a splash screen, w/ other options, that auto-runs instead... all of which is easy enough for me...

but what i don't know how to do is to get a link on the HTML file to run the .exe as opposed to give the prompt to save it... is there an "easy" way to do this?
both files reside on the same directory of the flash drive, and the .exe would only run when the user clicks the link...
seems like it should be possible since i can auto-run the .exe, but w/ security restrictions, i can't seem to figure it out...

TIA

I am very new with HTML and PHP and the code below I have a drop down select box and a submit button which uses PHP (this is from an example) But I need help on how to allow the user to select a report name from the drop down and click the Submit button and open a excel spreadsheet. If there is a simple way to do using HTML - that is OK. I just need some help getting started....



If "Position" is selected user clicks Submit button and the Excel file opens. First of all is that possible? And second then how do I accomplish? Thanks in advance.

Is there a way to have a link bring up a 'Save as...' box by default rather than having the link open the file inside my visitors' browser. More specifically, I have a long lecture on my site (mp3) that by default opens in my visitors' browsers rather than offering to be downloaded. I know visitors can right-click on the link to get a 'Save as...' box, but I would rather 'Save as...' be the default action whenever the link is clicked.

Hello!
I'm new in this forum and this is my first post so if I'm doing something wrong please forgive me.

Question:

P.S.
Sorry if it is stupid question I'm new with HTML coding and also sorry for my not perfect English grammar.

I had a weird experience today that I was hoping others might shed some light on. I emailed a person a link to a powerpoint pps file and it opened full screen as planned. I also placed that link on an intranet web page and it opened in 'edit' mode. How come?

Is there something I'm missing on code necessary to ensure the same URL opens properly and in full screen mode ????

The link was very similar to this where page code is concerned...

<dd><li><a href="http://mail.yahoo.com/?.intl=us" TARGET="_top">Yahoo Email</a><p>

Might it have something to do with 'target' ???

TIA
