I have some resource sheets that I have collected over the years and some blank census transcript forms that i have done on excel. Can I post these on my site, for others to use?

In theory yes, .... (wait for it ) ......

But (you knew that was coming  Grin) ...

the allowed file types are

js, swf, au, snd, ged mid, midi, ram, wav, gif, jpg, wrl, vrml, css, html, htm, rtf, png, psd, ico, doc, php, sql;

so you can upload .doc or .rtf files (from Word) but not .xls (from Excel)

Maybe if you ask Trystan nicely, he might allow .xls files too.

Well, pdf isn't in the list  Sad , but I just tried it and it works  Grin (xls didn't  Sad )

I think you need a line something like this:

Code:
<a href="http://yourwebsite/file3.pdf>Download an XYZ form</a>
with your website name, file name and text.

I just tried to upload an .rtf file, but it just says bad extension.
Is this right?

According to the list you can, so if it doesn't work, send Trystan a PM  Smiley
