The download file action interrupts execution. Not a Chronoforms thing, it's a way-the-internet-works thing.
​
If you want to download a file after submitting your form, you'll need to put the download action in another event and have a button or link pointing to that event displayed after submitting your form. You can also use a javascript block with DOM ready ticked and the code window.location('{url:download_event}&file={var:blahblah}'); to have the file download automatically once your form submission success page loads. In this case {var:blahblah} would be some sort of code or identifier that you retrieve in the download event using {data:blahblah} to determine which file you will download.

Thanks for the information. Could yout tell me the steps to do it?
My Knowledge in javascript is low.
Thanks!

that JavaScript I gave you is literally the whole thing.
​
User Submits form
Use a switch or PHP in the submit event to return a code you will use to select the file you want, like a number

Display success page
+ Put JavaScript I gave you on success page
+ Put link on page to {url:download}&file={var:code}
​
In the download event, use {data: code} to pick which file to download
Use download event to download that file

My Applogies, but I didn`t understand well those steps.
I was testing and didn`t work.
​
Could you specify the steps with more information ?
Regards,

Well first tell me how you decide which file to give to the user?

Ok. This is the form that I have to user click to download.

​
When you click to download the file .pdf is saved in your computer.
​
If is easier to you understand my configuration I can send you a message private with a user to login as administrator.

OK so it's the same file every time?
​
Create a new event in the Setup tab called "download". Put the download file action in that event.
​
When your submit event is complete DO NOT use the download file action. Instead, display a link to {url/full:download}
Also use the javascript I gave you, ignoring the part about a download code.

If it's a different file depending on Seleccione a sua indústria selected, then the URL you display and that you use in the javascript I gave you should be for example

<a href = "{url/full:download}&seleccione={data:seleccione_a_sua_indstria}">Download your file here</a>

Then in your Download event you use a switch (set to return var only) or whatever with {data:seleccione_a_sua_indstria} as the data source to decide on what file to serve, and then in your download action for the path you would have {path:root}/{var:switch} as the filename.

The file pdf is the same for all option.
The problem is when I click to download stay in looping.

If the file is the same then get a link to the file and place it in a "Custom code" event in the submit event, does that help ?

Yes like I told you what the problem is, what the reason is, and gave you a solution WITH CODE. Have you tried it?
