Ha! Thanks for that.. I upgraded to 2.7.4. but get 404 not found when I use Anthony's code..
in the view- <td>{{=A('Download', _href=URL('default', 'download', args=download_path))}}</td> <td>{{=A('Download w title', _href=URL('default', 'download', args=[download_path, 'new_title']))}}</td> in default.py- @auth.requires_login() def download(): """ allows downloading of uploaded files http://..../[app]/default/download/[filename] """ ## response.download(self, request, db, chunk_size=DEFAULT_CHUNK_SIZE, attachment=True, download_filename=None): return response.download(request, db, download_filename=request.args(1)) ...hopefully there is something else silly that i am doing wrong here...?
