    I have an zip file that I want to upload to my page and then make link for others to download it. I want the file to start download when people click the link. How do I do this?

    Just insert the absolute path i.e. for e.g. http://abc.com/a.zip. You would do this, <a href="http://abc.com/a.zip">zip file name</a>. Now the code will be hyperlinked to “zip file name”.

    or alternatively you can use <download></download> codes.
