Okay, I am having a little trouble with something I am trying to setup in
my home page. I am attempting to put in a link to a file, which if the
viewer selects, will download that file. The file is a binary (in this
case, an ARJ/ZIP/etc), so it is not something that is fed into a
soundplayer, nor does it make a hell of a lot of sense if you view it,
i.e. a href to ftoomsh.progsoc.etc.etc/my/path/here/filename, does not
work (it just displays the file, and with different results every time at
that...). Nor does ftp://ftoomsh/location/of/path, i also tried
replacing ftp with file, am I still doing something wrong? Or is the
configuration on ftoomsh such that I am prohibited from doing this.
