Re: How to link PDF file?

Many thanks David.

Me thinks I'll build a text file as a canned response which include your
form of link.

I still have memories of the early days in website building was a mass of
unknowns and many frustrating failures.

Hmmm.... I still have those days at times when undertaking a new idea. <G>

Take care,

Don

Don,

I like your directions, but I think that it might be better if a absolute
link is used. Publisher 2000 does not use a supporting subfolder which
will allow your relative link to work. However, if the inserted link is on
any page other than the home page by a Publisher 2003 and 2007 user, then
that page will usually be contained in a "index_files" folder, at the same
directory level as the "downloads" folder. I don't think the relative link
will get the 2003 and 2007 user to the "downloads" folder, but an absolute
link will. So instead of:
/downloads/ravioli_recipe.pdf
I would write it as:
http://www.yourdomain.com/downloads/ravioli_recipe.pdf

Bridget,

The following should work without any passwords.

In the same location where your website files (htm or html) on the server
create a folder, i.e., downloads

The files your want made available to visitors upload into the downloads
folder, i.e., ravioli_recipe.pdf, meatball_recipe.pdf etc

Edit a webpage to create file links, i.e.,

Get my Ravioli recipe here.

With the mouse, highlite the word here

From the Menu bar select

Insert
Hyperlink

In the Hyperlink box type

/downloads/ravioli_recipe.pdf

Do the same for the meatball_recipe.pdf and any other files you want on
your website.

OK

Save as a webpage or Publish webpage (whatever you do to create an
updated webpage)

Now when you go to your website and click on the word here the
corresponding file will load on your computer.

I've read numerous threads regarding including external files... most of
David B.'s,
(http://msmvps.com/blogs/dbartosik/archive/2006/01/07/80561.aspx)
but my question is still unanswered.

MS Publisher 2002-I upload to my server using Filezilla. No problem with
that, or updating the links, but each time I click on the link from a
remote
computer the Internet Explorer login box appears requesting the USER/PW
or
anonymous login. I've contacted my ISP (hostexcellence) numerous times
to see
how to change permissions via the server and now they just said, "Your
web
design document has password code in it that is causing that". Any truth
to
this or ideas on how to change this?

Thanks,
BEE
