    How to release file for download on a specific date using HTML?

    I have a website that we offer our embroidery customer free designs ea month. I want to be able to up all the files at one time for the whole year but on the 1st of each month the file becomes avaiable for the customer to download them. So a date activated html code but I want the image to still show - I just want to drive those customer back to the site each month

    webpage http://www.tex-inc.com/freedesigns.php

    thx Sal

    You can't do this with just HTML. You'll have to use some sort of server side scripting language like PHP or ASP.

        Are your imagse currently being pulled from a database?

        If so adding an extra field in your database such as "activation date" would allow you to pull only those images that are currently within your date range.
