Create Download Link Html
I have a basic idea of HTML. I want to create the download link in my sample website, but I don't have idea of how to create it. How do I make a link to download a file rather than visit it? Aug 15, 2016 I would start out by getting your file uploaded to a Cloud Storage account. I would suggest using MediaFire; but there are many other options you could choose from (ex: Google Drive, DropBox, Box), but personally MediaFire is the simplest when tr.

This answer is outdated. We now have the download attribute as described here.
If by 'the download link' you mean a link to a file to download, use
the target=_blank will make a new browser window appear before the download starts. That window will usually be closed when the browser discovers that the resource is a file download.
Note that file types known to the browser (e.g. JPG or GIF images) will usually be opened within the browser.
You can try sending the right headers to force a download like outlined e.g. here. (server side scripting or access to the server settings is required for that.)

In modern browsers that support HTML5, the following is possible:
You also can use this:
This will allow you to change the name of the file actually being downloaded.

the browser's download to disk behavior can also be triggered by the following http response header:
This was the way to do before HTML5 (and still works with browsers supporting HTML5).
A download link would be a link to the resource you want to download. It is constructed in the same way that any other link would be:

To force things to download even if they have an embedded plugin (Windows + QuickTime = ugh), you can use this in your htaccess / apache2.conf:

For pdfs:
<p><a href='file:///....example.pdf' download target='_blank'>test pdf</a></p>
This should open the pdf in a new windows and allow you to download it (in firefox at least). For any other file, just make it the filename. For images and music, you'd want to store them in the same directory as your site though. So it'd be like
The download attribute doesn't work in IE, it ignores the 'download' completely. The download doesn't work on Firefox if the href points to a remote site. So Odin's example doesn't work on Firefox 41.0.2.
The download attribute is new for the <a> tag in HTML5

I prefer the first one it is preferable in respect to any extension.
You can download in the various way you can follow my way. Though files may not download due to 'allow-popups' permission is not set but in your environment, this will work perfectly
another one this one will also fail due to 'X-Frame-Options' to 'sameorigin'.
There's one more subtlety that can help here.
I want to have links that both allow in-browser playing and display as well as one for purely downloading. The new download attribute is fine, but doesn't work all the time because the browser's compulsion to play the or display the file is still very strong.
BUT. this is based on examining the extension on the URL's filename!You don't want to fiddle with the server's extension mapping because you want to deliver the same file two different ways. So for the download, you can fool it by softlinking the file to a name that is opaque to this extension mapping, pointing to it, and then using download's rename feature to fix the name.
I was hoping just throwing a dummy query on the end or otherwise obfuscating the extension would work, but sadly, it doesn't.
