Hello,

I want to make a link to a picture. When the link is clicked the picture should **not** open but instead the download/save dialog box should appear. But when I click link in the RTE and choose file and then clicks the picture, the link still opens as a new window. How can I change this? I have noticed that in the source the h ref = http:// and not file:// but if i manually change this the picture cant be found.
