Dear, if my file.ini was set: [BinaryFileSettings]Handler=ezfilepasstrough
when I a open a file by "<a href=..>...</a>", will appear a download dialog and the file is display on new page.
if my file.ini was set: [BinaryFileSettings]Handler=ezfiledirect
I cannot open any file, the url is "parent_node".
How to directly open a file without appear download dialog?
thanks.

Dear Valenti,
do you get the way?
my ezpublish's version is 3.3,
I will upgrade it to 3.5 and see whether the problem is display yet!

The <i>ezfiledirect</i> will only work if the links point to the file on the filesystem.
Do make this work you will have to change your template code for the datatype, it should look something like:
<a href="{$attribute.content.filepath|ezroot}">download</a>
You will also need to make sure your webserver is configured to server these files directly.
In general I would recommend to use the <i>ezfilepasstrough</i> handler, unless you have some problems with it. The <i>ezfiledirect</i> handler cannot check user permissions for instance.
