How is the data linked in the background?.using a db?

Maybe this is too complicated, but I would keep the original file names,
and put it in a directory named '149284.'
Although, if you don't want to try that approach you may want to link
to another CFM page that renames the file and then links to it, either
using javascript or a cflocation.

Slightly OT HTML question
Hello-
I know this is slightly off topic, but it is related to HTML, so here it
goes:
I keep an archive of files. A user uploads a file ("MyFile.doc") and it gets
dumped into a directory for storage. It gets renamed to a unique name
("149284.doc") for storage, and the original filename is stored in the
database.
Now the user wants to download the file. I can make a link to the file, but
it would be downloaded with the numeric name. Is there any way to somehow
"dynamically" rename the file so that the user doesn't have to rename it
manually?
Thanks!
Norman
