Dear php people
On my homepage I have certain files that people can download. I have just linked to these files in the usual way. So when people want to download a file, they have to rightclick and use the context menu in order to download to their harddisc. Unfortunately many leftclick or doubleclick on the link, and then the computer will try to open the file. This can cause troubles like freezing etc.... So my question is, if it is possible to write a php script, so that when people leftclick on the link, a download box will pop up, where they can choose what to do: Open, download or cancel. I have seen these kind of boxes at Tucows: see for example:

Wait about 8-12 seconds and a box will pop up. I hope you can give me some hints how to make a script that does this?
Sincerely,
Erik
