Hi all
I am setting up a file download screen comprising of numerous old news letters (Microsoft Word .DOC files) for our church website. I have a screen of images representing each newsletter. When I select a link, the file downloads without the usual prompt of SAVE or OPEN. Testing this on another machine gives the same result. The file down loads OK but I am concerned that there is no prompt.
Any advice would be appreciated.
the URL is
Thanks

i havent tried this but its ment to force the document to save.

<a href=&quot;file.txt&quot; onClick=&quot;javascript:document.execCommand('SaveAs',1,'document.doc'); return true;&quot;>Save File</a> Anywhere is walking distance if you have the time.
