Download image

[help120]

I want to put a link on my site that when they click it a window will open up (just like you right click and went to save as) so that the user can save the image to their hard drive. Is their an html tag I can put into an href?

Depends what you are wanting to do here. If you want to open a save dialog box when the user clicks an image i dont think you will be able to do that as it is up to the user top choose to save an image. However if you want to link to a seperate web page with just the image on try..

<a href=&quot;#&quot; onclick=&quot;window.open('image.gif'); return false;&quot;><img src&quot;image.gif&quot;></a>

doubt this is really what your lookign for though...

good luck

You know when you click a link to a zip file it asks you if you want to save it or cancel? I want to do the same thing for an image.

if you have an ftp server with anonymous login, you could change http:// to ftp:// and that would do it (i think)
