That depends on what you want to happen when they click on that asset?

I've found the "ServiceLink" component indispensable in this regard. You can
create a simple little arbitrary engine service without the hassle of
creating new link components to run it...So..In your case you could:

Define a new engine service that serves files to people in such a way that
it'll correctly invoke their browsers application content handling type - or
download if none is found...(Ie setting response type , etc..)

Then use a simple ServiceLink to pass in what you want to give the service,
which is presumably a local asset you have defined.

I need to create a link to an asset in Tapestry 3.

Basically, I have a .pdf which isn't in my "context".

Thoughts on how to link to it?

thanks,
