Hi I have a Web app, with two fields where the user selects an image from his directory

"Select Image"

Then pastes in a Link to a Drop Box file

link

In the code I have this

<a href="{tag_download 1 link to file}">{tag_download 1 image_nolink}</a>

but it does not work, and when I look at the source - it shows this

<a href="<a href=" getting%20started.pdf?dl="0&quot;">https://www.dropbox.com/s/a9qeu2063svc9hs/Getting%20Started.pdf?dl=0</a>"><img src="/property-directory/generic-images/property_investment_report.png" border="0" alt="" /></a>


What am I doing wrong, or more importantly how can I fix it


Thank you

Ok figured it out

<a href="{tag_download 1 link to file_value}">{tag_download 1 image_nolink}</a>

The first tag needs to be "_value" only.

FYI  - for others that may have the same problem.

Can I ask why you want to have a link to an image your already viewing?

No the link is to a file, however the image is used instead of Link Text.

The user copies in an external link to a dropbox file or selects a file they have uploaded themselves. {tag_download 1 link to file_value}

They then select one of a total of nine generic images that represent the information in the file. {tag_download 1 image_nolink}

There are a total of nine files that may or may not be uploaded, and web site visitors can choose which file to download, by clicking on the appropriate image.
