HTML - Ie And Downloading .mov Files
Similar TutorialsHow do I get a sound file to automatically download when a user enters the page after purchsing? Thanks. Hi, I'm putting up a store that sells downloadable content and am having trouble with the download procedure in the osCommerce system. Under Linux it works great but the host I am using uses Microsoft Server and after about 10 mb or 4 minutes time it runs out of resources and reports the download is complete when it is not. Now I'm looking for an alternative method to download the file without the buyer being able to see the exact URL for the file. If he could see that he would have the opportunity to pass it on to his friends. If dishonest he could just as easily email the file to all his friends but I digress. Using the store's download procedure I can only get 46kps where as I can get in excess of 200kps by entering the URL to the file in the address box at the top of the browser. Ok now I have procedures that will check to make sure the person is logged in and he has downloads available to the file before the procedure will continue so what I need to know is there a way to after the checks are run just do the equivelant of entering the URL at the top of the box without actually allowing the user to see the URL to the file? The store uses PHP to do this and under Linux is extremely fast, but under MS server is slower than crap and never completes. I thank you for reading this, I probably gave more information than was needed, but I would rather err on the side of too much than too little.

I am setting up a website to print free birthday cards. However I am not at all experienced in html. Basically I want the customers to print the cards without downloading the image. I thought I could do this perhaps by loading what I want printed in an iframe (???) The actual page will have the image with a watermark on it, and a printing link that prints the card without the watermark Generally when you click a link to e. g.

Thanks Sakthi I'm trying to setup download links on my page. For exsample I have a file on my web server and I want a link that I can click on and it will bring up a download window. Can anyone PLEASE HELP! There are download managers (such as DAP, etc.) which can download parts of files from different mirrors and assemble them on the same pc. Your users will need one of these installed to download the file, or you could send them your own download manager. If using a ready made download manager they'll need to enter the urls of the two mirrors of the file. Hi, I'm a photographer and I want to start posting portrait slideshows to my website. What I would like to do is have a simple HTML page with hyperlinks that when you click on the subjects name it will start the download for the slideshow. However, I would like for it to request a password before allowing someone to download the file. It doesn't have to be double super secret secure and is really more for keeping honest people honest. I would just like to have another step the might deter someone from downloading another person's slideshow. Any help with this coding would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! -Pam Hi, Im trying to put .pps or .ppt slideshows on my website but instead of playing the show, it wants to download. I thought they were working right at one point a long while ago, but nooooo...I must have been hallucinating! I would really appreciate any advice. page: http://jdsplace.us/vids/seriousvids/...worldpics.html the slideshow is beautyworldpics.pps code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Beautiful Views of Our World</title> </head> <body background="/background_images/b2.gif"> <a href="/new/lateststuff/lateststuff1.html"><img src="/gif/backblue.gif" border="none"></a> <center> <table border="4" width="60%"> <tr> <td> <center><font size="6"><em><b> Here are some fantastic photos of our world </b></em></font</center> </td> </tr> </table> <br> <font size="4"> Click the Blue button...may take a moment to load </font> <a href="/vids/seriousvids/beautyworldpics.pps"><img src="/gif/button43.gif" border="none"></a> </center> </body> </html> Please follow this link and observe how the page scrolls up after you have been taken there. It scrolls up because, unless you've been here before and have all the images stored on your computer, the images are continually downloaded and they expand the height of the page causing it to expand down and causing your browser to scroll up. Incidentally, the point at which you were supposed to be linked to ends up further down the page. Is there a way of preventing this? Is there a way of getting the browser to stick to the original point on the page where you were linked to? I was hoping someone could clue me in as to whether or not this would be possible. I'm thinking it isn't but I need to make sure. I'd like to provide a file for people to download on my website, but when they click on the link and the download window appears I don't want them to have the option of opening it. Is it possible to only give them the option to save the file? Sounds incredibly unlikely but I gotta know. Hi all, not sure if this is posted in the correct place... please move if not...! I am after some information about how to build OFT (Files Outlook File Templates). I cant find any information about how to build/develop them. It may be pretty straight forward but need some guidance. Any help or pointers would be greatly accepted! Thanks all Hurley! I have some .tif files that I want to display on my web site but they don't show up. What are my options? Thanks... I'm sure this is probably one of the dumbest questions to appear here, but how would I get a link to a file to open that file in its native program - i.e. a .doc into Word or a .xls with Excel rather than in an IE plugin? Problem is, of course, whilst the IE plugins work, they don't have full functionality. I read somewhere that you could change the default settings in Windows, but part of what I'm trying to set up is on a business computer and of course, things like file associations and registry are tied down pretty tight so they can't be accessed, so I need to do it from within a page of links. Many thanks (in hope) Hi all. I am redoing my homepages but have a problem that is driving me sane! A set of files work perfectly when checked by Firefox on my computer. When that same set of files are uploaded to the Homepage a few (not all) embedded jpgs do not appear, though their titles do. The files are not corrupted, I have checked. The jpg's are right there where they belong. To see the effect the Url is. http://homepages.ihug.co.nz/~Sspinett/Index.html Internet Explorer 7 has the same result Cheers. Pete.

I've recently taken over the web designing for a company... the site is already made, and the previous designer has dropped out, and the company needs me to make updates, add articles, etc. There are .htaccess files in almost every directory and subdirectory throughout the site. When I go to add an image, and make a link to it on a page, the image is not found, even though the source is correct. ex - initially, the page links to an image at "images/image1.jpg" . I make an image2.jpg, place it in the right folder, and try to link to it - "images/image2.jpg" but the image cannot be displayed on the site (says it cannot be found - same as a 404). I am assuming this has to do with the htaccess permissions and all that stuff (also in each directory is a "_notes" subdirectory and another directory like that) but I'm not sure. I wikipedia'd htaccess files, and read that they were made for apache servers... the server hosting the site I am working on uses IIS... another confusing problem. Is there anyway to edit these .htaccess files so that I can add more images to the site? Also, why cant I see images these 'blocked' images? Is there any way to disable this blocking? guys i have a page with a link. when i click the link i want to print a file. assuming the file already exits.. say a doc file or something thanks guys your help would be mightily appreciated |
