I have an hyperlink to a pdf form that can not be opened by the browser's pdf viewer. If clicked, the browser tries to show it but I get the error message like "it is necessary Acrobat Reader 8.x" etc. Is there a way to force an hyperlink to such pdf form file to only allow its downloading? In this way, the user could open it with his local Adobe Reader.
Let’s say you have a PDF that you want to let people download. The file will be like this:
Download Receipt
In most browsers, clicking on the link will open the file directly in the browser.
But, if you add the download attribute to the link, it will tell the browser to download the file instead.
<a href="/path/to/your/receipt.pdf" download>Download Receipt</a>
The download attribute works in all modern browsers, including MS Edge, but not Internet Explorer.
In the latest versions of Chrome, you cannot download cross-origin files (they have to be hosted on the same domain).
To make the hyperlink to download the pdf file when clicked, you should use download property inside the anchor tag. For example you can see the code below:
Download the pdf file
You can also give your own name to the downloadable pdf file in the download property that I provided as 'Document' in the code above.
Yes, it is possible. First download the file and then you'll see a link when it downloaded(it disappears quite quickly) just copy it and use:
hyperlink
I want to allow a user to download a .mp4 file that is hosted on Cloudinary. I currently have this:
<a
target="__blank"
href='https://res.cloudinary.com/dental-
intelligence/video/upload/v1576364994/ippevbecmsljhzkfklyi.mp4'
download
>
Download
</a>
but all it does is open the url and begin playing the video. Is there a way to download it directly to the user's computer once they press download?
You'll need to remove the target attribute and use the attachment flag in Cloudinary (fl_attachment).
<a href='https://res.cloudinary.com/dental-intelligence/video/upload/fl_attachment/ippevbecmsljhzkfklyi.mp4'>Download</a>
I used the code:
<a download href="https://web.stanford.edu/group/csp/cs21/htmlcheatsheet.pdf"> Download cheetsheat</a>
but i wasn't able to make the link download the PDF. It opens the PDF instead.
The attribute is "download" but it is not working
Set the download attribute to the filename:
<a download="htmlcheatsheet.pdf" href="https://web.stanford.edu/group/csp/cs21/htmlcheatsheet.pdf"> Download cheetsheat</a>
The following code will make the user download the .doc file
Download
I want to create a link that will let user to download .html file
Any Ideas how to do it....???
You can add a download atributte to the <a> tag.
We'll get something like this:
<a href="file.html" download>Download</a>
Note: The download attribute IS NOT supported in Internet Explorer.In this case, it's better to zip the html file (add it into a .rar or a .zip, WinRAR can do this) and link it.
It'll be: Click me
I guess the easiest way to provide a .html file for download to a user would be to put it in a .zip or .rar format.
You can use the HTML5 Download attribute in the anchor tag.
Download attribute signifies that the resource it points to should be downloaded by the browser instead of navigating to it.
<a href="myfile.html" download> Download HTML file </a>
or, you can specify a name of the downloadable file by yourself
Download with specified name
Not all browsers support this HTML5 attribute, here is the detail of where it will work.
Why is this not working:
download.html
download
The jsplogin.jar file is in the same folder has the download.html file.
when I click the download link the file jsplogin.jar should download
but its trying to open the file in the browser.
when I right clicked on the link and selected "save link" nothing is happening.
In HTML5, in most browsers you can add a 'download' attribute to the a element.
for example:
<a href="http://www.example.com/index.html" download>Download</a>
Based on this question. How can I create download link in html?
Use the "download" attribute:
<a href="jsplogin.jar" download>download</a>
The download attribute didn't work for me, but this did:
Download
The opens a new tab but downloads the file and closes the tab once it realizes it's not a file type it should render. In my case it was a .csv, I did not test with .jar but i imagine you'd get the same result.
