I have some downloadable documents (PDF) on my website for visitors to download. But I want to collect their personal information (name, email etc) before they are able to doanload them. Can anyone tell me if there's a simple way of doing this?

Jump to PostYou can do simple html form, however that can be cheated. So you need to look in some server side technology with ability to talk to database like PHP, ASP, JSP or AJAX (not exactly server side but can chat with database)
Jump to PostDepends what you want to do:
- simple form with html
- html with JavaScript validation
- use PHP/ASP/JSP/AJAX
Jump to Postrestrict your user to download only after providing his/her information...
this is done by sessions concept in php or provide login form....
