    I wish it was that easy. The files are stored on a site that is validated by a CAC card. The cards hold credentials that validate a user has access to the files. Unfortunately the site is not organized very well and it’s difficult for users to find what they are looking for., thus the need for a portal.

    For instance, V3 of said software. To upgrade from V2 you need to download about 12 files. I want the user to click one link where all 12 files are. So they don’t have to dig. As it is, if I add the link to the page with the 12 files it validates the users credentials then dumps them into the main site, defeating the purpose. It works if you have already signed in and you’re clicking the links which is why I was hoping I could have a link to the main site. This would open a tab. It would then valid there CAC and be done. But the tab they used would just open up behind the main window. Or a pop up would do the same thing as long as it belonged to the same session. Ya dig?
