David,
Yes, there appears to be an error in the download file.
I changed everything to absolute paths and it still does not
work. It will successfully load the list of files into the drop
down, but when I press the button it gives me the download not
available error.
I know this is something simple I am overlooking (beginner
and all), but I just can't figure it out.
Below is the code.
I also trie one version using the jump menu but I can only
get it to read the root folder, such as
www.marketscholar.com/filename. It should be
www.marketscholar.com/PDFs/filename. How can I change the jump menu
code to the PDFs path?
Thanks for the help.
Glenn
