I have a site of primarily photos and I place a download button so people who wished could download all the photos in a group. It works as desired in Firefox but will not work with Windows.

The code I used is:

<h3 align="center">Click "Download All" to download
all photos in this gallery. Note, this is a large file and may
take some time.</h3>
<a href="119.zip" target="_blank"><button
type="button">DOWNLOAD ALL!</button> </a>

What do I need to do to make it work with Windows?

The web page is at: http://www.irbflying.com/4id%20gallery/4id.html

also c477.html and 119.html

Thanks for any help.

I recall placing a BUTTON element in a link does not work in MSIE. Instead you might style the link with CSS to look like a button. If you want a real button, try this instead of using a link: http://htmlhelp.com/faq/html/links.html#button-link

Thanks Christian, I'll give it a try. Please bear with me while I work on this, it's my first attempt at a website.
