With HTML / HTTP downloads you can't detect if a download is completed. You can redirect the user direct to a page though and let the download start when that page is loaded. If you put the following META tag in the the head element of your website, then the download will start automatically after 1 second: <meta HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" content="1; URL=http://http://www.mysite.com/MyDownload.zip";> It is smart to still put a link to the download on the 'thanks' page, so the user can download it again if ze accidently pressed Cancel. ! Keep in mind that everybody can get the url of the download file from the source of the orderform ! > Is it possible to automatically initiate a second download after the first > download completed? (Stupid question, I guess!!) Since you can't trigger an event after a download is finished, doing a second one after the first isn't possible too.
