Hi all,  
If I had a website made in flash 5 how do I make something on my site downloadable.

For example if I had some fla’s that I wanted to make available to everyone what do I need to do so that once a button has been clicked the downloading box appears.

Please help:bandit:

Hi ilyaslamasse,  
Thanks for replying so quick.

I kind of knew the answer would be as you said because that is the way I would do it if I was working with Dreamweaver (HTML)but the problem I have is the fla’s are not on HTML pages so how do I find the url.:bandit:
