An advanced UI design should be to disable the button after checking if the link is live or not. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13310029/use-jquery-to-check-if-links-still-work http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1414365/how-to-disable-enable-an-input-with-jquery – Debajyoti Das Jan 24 '14 at 16:44

Your web browser will already do that, as it does for any web path that returns a 404 error.
So simply let that mechanism do its job.

@user2955331: Then you'll have to encapsulate all of this in a function that first checks, via AJAX, whether the file can be downloaded. It gets complicated. Why? – Lightness Races in Orbit Jan 24 '14 at 16:41
