Allowing User To Download File From Webpage

I would like to be able to allow the viewer of a website to download a file when they request it. Like seen at tucows or download.com

Can someone give me some rough pointers on where to get started?

Allowing The User To Back Track

I want to track the steps the user has gone through to get to this page and then display links so they can click on them to go back to that page. I would do this as hard code but the problem is most of the pages can be accessed from several different pages.

ex.
a product page a home page and a specials page

the path to the product can be home -->product or
home-->specials --> product

exactly like the viewing link at the top of this page but in asp.net instead of php.

Treat User Input As Text Only (allowing The Apostrophe)

Isn't there some line of code that I can write to tell ASP to treat everything between BLAH and /BLAH as text (including the apostrophe). So that users can type a name of "O'Malley" in a form and I can retrieve it and store it in my database.

File Uploading Via A Webpage On A Mac To A Win2k Server

I was wondering if there are any known problems when using an apple macintosh to upload files and put text in a database via an ASP page that could cause either database error pages or simply some data not being written to the database. I have had this problem on a couple of sites now, and not been able to recreate the errors on my PC.

File Download Box

Downloaded the sendMail.htm and sendMail.asp sample files
from technet onto my IIS 4.0 server. The first 2-3 times
I tested all went well. Subsequent tests, with no server
changes, gave/gives me the "File Download" dialogue box
when the sendMail.asp file should be executing. Why does
sendMail.asp give a "File Download" box instead of just
executing?

I want the MP3 audio files to be able to download by users only.

Prevent File Download

Currently i am doing a file management project where user are able to create folder and upload files to it. The file ownner would be able to set permission (from database linking to the file path) if a user able to download it or not.

*each file info will be stored into a table e.g. fileid, filename, path, access.

Now i am facing a problem where if a user does not have permission to click on the link to download, the user can guess the path and the file name and directly type the path on the address bar to download the file.

File Download Stream

i want to be able to write an asp.net function to download files.

For example, brinkster.com hosting service has a COM component that allows a stream of binary data to the client from the server so that the client will be prompted to download the file.

here is the syntax:

Set Upload = Server.CreateObject("Persits.Upload")

Dim SysFilePath
SysFilePath = Request.QueryString("filePath")

' Parmeters:
' 1. Path to file to download
' 2. Yes, build content-xxx headers
' 3. Use this value for Content-Type header
' 4. Include the word "attachment;" to Content-Disposition to force download

Upload.SendBinary "premfs3sitespremium8jaydakissx22webrootmyFile.txt, True, "application/octet-binary", True

How can I do this in asp.net without using the "Persits.Upload" COM object?

Automatic File Download

if anyone had any script that can allow a page to run some code and then kick off a file download.Maybe like many places do saying download should start automatically or you can "click here".I appologise if this is easy to work out from the source of one of those pages, but my view source seems to have died and I thought an answer from here might be quicker than fixing it!

File Download Dialog Box

I have coded a file upload process in ASP and the current way I allow files to be downloaded, which have been uploaded is by using the <a href> tag. This works but it normally opens the files for the user in a new browser window. What I would like to do is present the user with a download link which opens the Windows File Download dialog box.
I thought there might be an easy way to do this kind of like HTML provides for uploading a file… which is the input type=file (presents the user with the browse button). Is there an easy way to present the user with a Windows File Download dialog box?
