What does "secure file download" mean? Does it mean that only those who have been granted permissions may have access to files stored within the webfm file structure? Or does it mean that the download of files stored within the webfm file structure is in some manner encrypted on download and then decrypted by the browser?

Thanks

The former. Users with the 'view webfm attachments' access right can download the file. The file can still be retrieved directly via the /webfm_send/xxx path if there is no .htaccess blocking http access. At some future point I will modify webfm_file.inc to move the files out of webroot so that the .htaccess isn't required.

Boy, customer service has really gone to the dogs. 6 whole minutes to respond? I don't see why it should take more than 4 minutes to respond to a request of **MINE**. ;-)

Seriously, many thanks for the extremely quick response. It is appreciated.
