I am not getting a download but getting an error when testing a pop up form created with v4:

The file path doesn't exist: http://www.abcpackagingdev.com/images/brochures/abc-rev.pdf

---------------

The debugger says file path does not exist, but when using that address in the browser it does. Any thoughts?

I also do not like having my site background image inside the pop up iframe. I tried setting a style to get rid of it but no luck.

It seems I had to use the absolute, absolute path. Before upgrading to Joomla 2.5.4 I used the "absolute" path using the url - now I am using the absolute path i.e.; /home/account_name/public_html/images/downloads/, and it seems to work.😀

Still having issues getting to the thank you message after that though. max suggested adding another event to cue a download link, but not sure how to do this.

P.S.

I like the changes made in the interface in v4 RC3.3, had to log out and then back in to see them all but they look great!

Hi jjspelman,

This looks like the difference between 'paths' used internally by the server to identify the folders where files are located and 'URL's used on the internet. The two are often very similar but it's important to get the right one for the particular code you are writing.
