Thanks for everyone for comments, the download button was also a placeholder it's just to show my idea of putting something like that on the homepage. It is a svg mockup I could pass it to xhtml+css in a day or so, but I didn't wanted to do so because I first need to talk with the people in charge of the web part. > Does the search box work?
