Inserting a plug-in link for pdf on site

Nulty · 2010-02-24 18:37:51

Can anyone tell me how to insert a plug in on a website? I'm trying to make it so that someone opening a .pdf file (or anyother for that matter) would get a link/reference to Adobe (or such) if they didn't have a pdf reader. Is it automatic? Thanks

Just add <a href="http://get.adobe.com/uk/reader/">Get Adobe Reader</a> after your download link.
