Link to File not Working

[mark4man]

Hello again...

Not sure what I did wrong...but I created a simple link to a file on my web server. Go to this page & check it out:

http://www.moonjams.com/musiclinks1.htm

In testing the page...when I right -click on the link & choose 'Save Target As'...I get a message that reads:

Internet Explorer cannot download "name of file" from "name of website". Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site.

I used regular old a href=" coding...I even spelled out the URL prior to the forward slash/file name.

What did I do wrong...is there another type of coding necessary for downloadable type files?

Thanks,

mark4man

The file is not uploaded, or it is uploaded but to a different location.

Your href link points to http://www.moonjams.com/CaseyJones_Test.cwp is that correct?

Yes.

& it IS there...I just checked.

Thanks very much...maybe we can solve this. I'm sure I messed up the code, somehow (by using simple anchor tags). There is no MIME for that type of file...but I thought for sure that wouldn't matter...that the visitor could download ANY type of file, if the link coding was correct. I even used a target of "self"; & that didn't work.

Is .cwp Roland's Cakewalk Format?

I think it's the unrecognized file format that is causing this problem.

You can experiment by simply putting the CWP file in a zipped file,
named Casey_JonesTest.zip and try the same thing ....
I'll bet it downloads just fine.

Is .cwp Roland's Cakewalk Format?

No...it's Cakewalk SONAR's default Project file (CakeWalk Project).

You can experiment by simply putting the CWP file in a zipped file, named Casey_JonesTest.zip and try the same thing .... I'll bet it downloads just fine.

& I'll just bet that's the damn doggone solution...right there. Why didn't I think of that?

Thanks, mlseim...
