Hi guys,
My company is trying to make a online web form where somebody fills in the form and they get access to a free PDF file.
How do I go about making this happen? Is there a simple way I can make this happen?
- We are using a host with no Content Manager running (like Drupal or etc)
- We have Wordpress installed for a blog
- Hosted by GoDaddy

I do mostly front-end stuff...
can you please point me to a tutorial?
- The one thing I don't want is for the PDF to be accessible through it's own url. Then people will bypass the form.

Create a PHP file that authorizes your form output, and redirects to the PDF via a:
[codex]<?php header ("Location: yourpdf.pdf"); ?>[/codex]
You'll need to update your php.ini to allow for header rewriting, if this isn't already set for you.
