  • I just put an example. There is a link on my web page which download a file from 4shared.com. I want that when someone click on that url then required download will start as well as it will redirect on another page Commented Jul 9, 2011 at 19:21
  • Then just open the download link in a new window and redirect the old one to where you want it to redirect to. Commented Jul 9, 2011 at 19:54
  • I want to do this on a single click and in a same tab Commented Jul 10, 2011 at 7:22

Use php.

Lets say that I click on a download link. It would most probably bring me to a download.php page. It could download the file and then use an if statement (excuse my bad syntax, I usually do bash and C):

 <?php // download code, or any other code if (file is downloaded) { header( 'Location: http://url.of.target' ) ; } else { // do nothing and continue downloading } ?>
