Is it possible to create a download page? If so how?!

What I want to do is create a page, where I can have uploaded files, then someone else goes in and downloads them to there computer.

 

It sounds simple enough but I am guessing it isn't. Has anyone got any advise on how to do this?

 

Cheers

More information may be helpful.

The way I see it.. you're asking for a page with a bunch of.. stuff, with the link "download" you click it and a download prompt box comes up.

 

Yep, you have hit the nail on the head. Any ideas on how I do it?

Well.. lets say you had a file called

stuff.rar (.rar zipped file)

You can then have

<a href="stuff.rar">download</a>

Clicking on the download link will download the file stuff.rar

 

If that made any sense.

Though if your .. results for downloads etc are in a database, it'll require echo's, and access to the database and other stuff. It'll be quite a big code.
