How to insert a file for direct download?

Christoph Polus	Wednesday 13 July 2005 12:28:17 am Hi I uploaded a file into the media folder of eZ publish 3.6. Now I'd like to make a direct download link to this file in my text area [XML Block]. Unfortunately I only get redirected to a page where I can download the file. How can I achieve to have direct the link to the file inserted? Thanks Chris
Christoph Polus	Wednesday 13 July 2005 12:40:52 am Ah, I thought in the wrong direction. Of course I can just embed the object and then use the embed/line/full template views to change output. A little tricky though for first time users (such as me) as they want to make a link to the object and specify the link text and don't think of inserting an actual object. But still curious: Is there a way of changing the link tag output to achieve the wanted effect? Thanks Chris
