What kind of files are you trying to download? Are you trying to hide the true location of the downloaded file (so others can't 'leach' it)?

no its not to hide,

just the code or file that ppl can download a map file of the game host on my website.

like music download but what is the code or where can i fint it.

files for download is maps game maps.

thank you for your respons.

Probably the simplest way to do this

Code:

<a href="filename.ext">Whatever Text Here</a>

Put this 'code' into whatever page on your site where you want the link to appear. This sample assumes that filename.ext exists in the same directory as the page.

The file can be archived into .zip format, and the .zip file can replace the actual file in the code, or just put the text "Right-Click to Download this File" or similar.

I'm happy that you got it resolved. BTW, a .rar, or any achive format for that matter, will work the same way.
