Hi,
I want create a web page using ASP and allows users to
download files. However, I don't want to show them the
exact location of file. The idea is similar to some that I've seen on some web sites that use CGI-Scripts, just using a unique value such as an ID#.
example: http://www.webserver.com/files.cgi?id=1
I would like to do something like that using ASP
example: http://www.webserver.com/files.asp?id=1
**Keep in mind that the values for id are been retrieved from a database - which stores the exact location of the file matching the desired id#
**This link when clicked should automatically trigger the file for download.
Can It Be Done?
