Help with Download Dialogue Box

[PLI CORPORATION]

How do you create a download dialogue box in Publisher 2007?

Do you mean a sentence or word that will be a link to a file to download?

Not exactly Don, I recently downloaded a driver for my printer at hp.com and
there's a dialog box that gives you a number of information like download
time, estimated time left and file size. Can you tell me how they did that?
It is kinda nice to say the least. Thanks

I always thought that was part of Internet Explorer and only came into play
with large files. Another mystery to wonder about.

Now I'm confused.

Not to put words in Don's mouth, but what I think he is saying is that the
download dialog box is generally controlled by the local computer. If you
are wanting to change it on the server side, you will have to look elsewhere
for an answer. This is beyond the scope of Publisher websites.

That's bad news, since it has such a nice effect. Thanks for the info David
