html tag to download a file on click code example

Example 1: html download link

<a href="path/to/file.ext" download rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">
   Download File
</a>

<!-- Please keep in mind that the dowload attribute is not supported by IE11. This why we need a target="_blank" fallback -->

Example 2: javascript download file on click

You can trigger a download with the HTML5 download attribute.

<a href="path_to_file" download="proposed_file_name">Download</a>
