About

Downloadr aims to solve the age old problem of downloading files from your website.

On countless occasions, I have been asked - "Why does the PDF open in my browser rather than download?" and my answer has always been - "Because you need to right click and choose Save As!".

Rather than trying to do any fancy server side stuff Downloadr will display an overlay with instructions on how to do this. You can of course just right click on the link and download as you normally would.

These instructions are tailored to the browser that the user is viewing your page in.

Not only that, but Downloadr will also style your link to look more like a button, so your user knows where to click.

Features

Easy to follow browser specific instructions

Automatic styling of link to look more like a button
