Interface options to allow user to download attachments

I am adding the capability to my web-based e-mail application to aloow users to get their attachments when the read their messages. I can find the attachments fine, I can save them to the local filesystem fine, I can also store them in my database (mySQL) fine, but I have a design issue.
What is the "best' way to allow the user to GET their attachments?
Any ideas or help would be appreciated.
Bob

you can probably do it through a squirrelmail plugin, but the mail password should be the same as the account's OD password, unless you've configured mail to run off a separate directory or local user list.

  • Code for website to allow users to download free Reader

    This is not the right forum, but I couldn't find one that applies, sorry.
    I'm adding some PDF files to my website for download, and I need to find the code that I can add to my website that will allow users to download the free Reader if they don't already have it. Can someone point me to that, please?
    Thanks!

    Found it:

    (related question popped up over there   --->
    which had the link.)
    I see that it's actually just the image, and there's no code... you just hyperlink the image yourself. Long time ago there used to be some HTML code that came along, and did the link for you as a reference or something.  I'm set now... thanks.

  • Need link/button to allow users to add attachments to Tasks on Collect Feedback workflow

    Hi All,
    we would like to modify the
    Collect Feedback workflow in SharePoint to
    allow users to add attachments to Tasks. We need an additional button on the review form to attach files, when the reviewers are submitting their comments. 

    Hi nai.mish,
    I would not suggest you to modify the default collect feedback workflow, but to custom a workflow with custom form page that similar with the default workflow.
    You can consider using SharePoint Designer workflow, in this way, you may not be able to custom the task form with attachment, you can try to use “Hyperlink or Picture” column, this will need the viewer to upload the attachment to a library
    first.
    Or you can create VS workflow, the following has a sample about adding attachment to an InfoPath Workflow task form, you can get more information from it:

  • Allow users to Download documents from server

    Hello Everybody,
    I am working on an Flex application where I have to allow the
    users to Open/Save documents such as Word document, Excel sheet,
    PDFs, Jpeg, Media files (any digital format document) when a user
    clicks on a link present in a Flex application. To do this I am
    using the navigateToURL() method and simply passing the URL string
    as a URLRequest to the navigateToURL method. This works fine but
    whenenver the link is invoked and the user selects to Save the
    Excel sheet or any document it displays an unwanted browser window
    behind the Open/Save/Cancel dialog box saying action cancelled.
    I can not use "_self" as I require the Flex application to
    run as is. I tried using the javascript:window.open() but this did
    not work.
    1) Is there a process to stop the browser window from
    opening?
    2) How can we invoke a javascript using navigateToURL(), I
    tried to invoke javascript.alert('Ok') and also
    javascript:window.open() both did not function.
    3) Is there any other method or flex classes etc. to invoke
    external applications (allow to download documents from server)?
    Please help me.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Paromita

    Paromita,
    You could use the file download functionality. This is from
    the docs:
    You can let users download files from a server using the
    FileReference.download() method, which takes two parameters:
    request and defaultFileName. The first parameter is the URLRequest
    object that contains the URL of the file to download. The second
    parameter is optional--it lets you specify a default filename that
    appears in the download file dialog box. If you omit the second
    parameter, defaultFileName, the filename from the specified URL is
    used.
    The following code downloads a file named index.xml from the
    same directory as the SWF document:
    var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("index.xml");
    var fileRef:FileReference = new FileReference();
    fileRef.download(request);
    To set the default name to currentnews.xml instead of
    index.xml, specify the defaultFileName parameter, as the following
    snippet shows:
    var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("index.xml");
    var fileToDownload:FileReference = new FileReference();
    fileToDownload.download(request, "currentnews.xml");
    I think this will accomplish what you are trying to do.

  • Allow users to download mp3

    In other words, I want to write the word "download," and have
    the mp3 transfer to the desktop (or wherever) of the clicker. I am
    working on a site primarily for people using screen readers and
    they generally do NOT use mice, so no right and left click. I've
    poked around Dreamweaver Help and elsewhere but can't even figure
    out what search terms to use.
    Thanks,
    Kari

    Zip it. Link to it. Easy peasy.
    If you want them to download the mp3 directly without playing
    it, just post
    instructions to right click on the link and save it.
    If you want this to all happen automatically, without using a
    zip file, you
    would have to use server scripting to send the appropriate
    header to teh
    server.
    This question is answered frequently here, so good search
    skills would have
    found it for you.

  • How do we allow user to download files?

  • Why can I no longer seemingly have the "option" in Yahoo Mail, to "View" attachments, and not just "download" them in my incoming emails?

    When I use IE browser to open my YAHOO EMAIL "classic" or "New" account, and I open an "inbox email", I have the option of "viewing" attachments, or "downloading" attachments.
    I used to have that "dual" option, seemingly, using Firefox Browser, which I prefer to use.
    Now, when I open my "Classic" or "New" Yahoo Email Account/s, with Firefox Browser, I no longer have the option, seemingly, to "VIEW" the attachments, but only the option to "Download" them, which I prefer not to do.
    I have tried this using the older version 3.6 and the new version 9 of Firefox with the same results. No "Dual Attachment Viewing/Downloading" option in Yahoo Mail anymore in either the "Classic" or "New" versions of Yahoo Mail.
    Can I correct this or change this back to the older "DUAL" OPTION of "Viewing" and/or "Downloading" attachments...or is this just the way the New FireFox Browser works.?
    This is only happening to me with YAHOO.COM Email Accounts.

    Thank you! I suppected it would be in the settings somewhere. I' ve much to learn...get myself into trouble pushing buttons I don't really understand.

  • By creating Web Gallery from CS4 Bridge can we allow people to download photos

    I want to create web gallery from CS4 but want to allow users to download a particular photo or the full album. How can we do this setting. May be we can create a PDF file but that will allow user to download the full PDF and then create a new page and save the PDF again with the particular photo but I need them to save the file in JPG.
    Do any one know how to do this setting making Web Gallery in HTML or other option JPG format.

  • Lightroom Web Gallery which Allows Users to Select and Email Their Photo Choices

    Does this exist......
    A gallery option which allows users to click the photos they want, then easily email those photo numbers to a certain email address?
    Thanks!

    I found the error on another thread. You can likely search for the other thread by using "Web Gallery Restore".
    Apple support helped another user resolve the issue in 30 minutes on the phone. The problem is evidently due to the order in which I added the .Mac account to my iPhone vs. applying 1.01 update, vs. iLife 08 update.
    The solution was to Restore my iPhone and then select NEW SETTING (not previous backup settings). Then, I setup my .Mac email address on iPhone. Then publish a new WebGallery in iPhoto 08 and ensure upload privilege is checked. Finally, sync with the Mac which enabled the WebGallery button (yea!) and restored contacts, calendar and other email accounts.
    The only thing not retained was my wallpaper, usage statistics, and notes (none of these are a big deal).

  • Firefox won't download attachments

    I recently updated my operating system to OS X Yosemite.
    Since then, Firefox will not allow me to download attachments from my email inbox, or on websites. I see all the downloads and icons listed with the message "Failed" next to each one. I need to resolve this quickly. Thanks for your help.

    Have you tried contacting the service from which you get webmail? It sounds like a problem with a web server.

  • This advertised application will not be installed because it might be unsafe. Contact your administrator to change the installation user interface option of the package to basic.

    Hi there,
    I was wondering whether anyone could tell me which feature in Windows 7 produces this message "This advertised application will not be installed because it might be unsafe. Contact your administrator to change the installation user interface option of
    the package to basic." and whether it can be turned off in Windows to prevent this message from appearing when installing certain programs that aren't WHQL certified. At first I thought it was the UAC control that generated this message but found out
    that it wasn't and then thought it was the DEP control and found out that it wasn't this either. I'm only seem to be getting this message when installing FileDirector Component Service Version 3 on a few of our workstations which is an add-on that allows file
    integration with Office and is part of FileDirector WinClient Version 3.
    Your help would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    RocknRollTim
    P.S. I know of a way to bypass this message but would ideally not like to have the feature turned on and for the message not to be appear for non WHQL certified program installations in order to make non WHQL certified program installations in the future much
    easier, more simpler and straightforward to carry out. I was redirected by a moderator off the Microsoft Community Forum.

    Hi,
    You can try following options to disable this prompt, but we don't recommend you to do so since this feature helps you to protect your computer.
    Option 1: Run command as admin:
    bcdedit -set loadoptions DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
    bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON
    Restart your computer to apply changes.
    Option 2: Disable in GPO:
    1.Type gpedit.msc in the Run dialog and press Enter.
    2.In the Group Policy Editor, navigate to User Configuration → Administrative Templates → System → Driver Installation.
    3.Double-click on Code signing for device drivers in the right-side pane as shown above.
    4.In the windows that opens, choose Enabled. In the Options, choose Ignore as shown. Then click on the OK button to save the settings.
    Restart your computer to apply changes.

  • Allowing user to run an optional test

    I'm new to Teststand and Labview. Can anyone tell me a simple way for allowing users to run an optional test sequence at the end of another test sequence. I've played around with the message popup step, hoping that I could just call the optional sequence if the operator presses an 'OK' button or end the original test sequence if the operator presses a 'CANCEL' button, but haven't had much luck so far.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    Make use of the Precondition, an example of this is the Computer Motherboard Test.seq in the TestStand\examples\demo folder.
    This has diagnostics test sequence which it runs if any of the test steps fail.

  • Why doesn't apple allow you to download files from the internet like how android users can?

    I was using a friend's android phone yesterday and saw that he could download files a wide variety of files from the internet and that made me wonder why Apple doesn't allow iPhone users to download files like the ones you could on an android device

    To keep the sort of malware rather prevalent for Android devices off of your iPhone. Depending on what you need to download, though, you can probably find a third-party app that will do it. Since such apps keep their documents in their own sandbox, it helps protect the iPhone from being infected by malicious "documents".

  • Have personal Apple ID account which allows me to download apple apps but when I go to update the apps Apple ID pops up thats not mine and cannot log in to update apps.  Brand new IPAD never any other user

    Have personal Apple ID account which allows me to download apple apps but when I go to update the apps Apple ID pops up thats not mine and cannot log in to update apps.  Brand new IPAD never any other user

    Is the AppleID listed in Settings --> Store and Settings --> iCloud the same?
    If it is a totally different ID and not a slight variation of yours, I would definitely take it back to the store. You may have bought a returned item that had been setup previously.
