  • linking to uploaded files

    i've looked through all the tutorials and i have one question ...similar to Ken999's question....:

    I understand how to upload a new file to a new folder using the control panel....but i don't show how link from one of my pages to the new uploaded file......

    As I understand viewers to my site can only see the links and images i create for them.... So far, I only see instructions on how to link to other web pages.

    in other words, since the new file would be on YOUR system, how how can i direct the link on MY computer to link to the new file on YOUR server.

    I'm an amateur filmaker, and my goal is give viewers the opportunity to click on a link and automatically download a video file that i gave uploaded to your server.

    I've been racking my brains and cannot see exactly how this is done.

    example....

    lets say you uploaded a zip file called movie.zip ok?

    you would create the following hyperlink on your page.



    or



    if you created a new folder.

    when one of your vsistors clicks one of the above. The download will start automatically.

      so instead of navigating to the file through windows, i directly type in the location of the file ?
