Download file with HTML

Question

I would like to know what should I write in my .html to make one link downloadable...

I mean, I would like to write something like :

<a href="file:///home/user/Desktop/folder/whatever.jpg"> filename</a>

and then, when someone clicks on it, do not open another tab, download this .jpg

You just need to add 'download' in anchor tab.

<a href="file:///home/user/Desktop/folder/whatever.jpg" download> filename</a>
