If they have logged in you could create a session that says that the user is logged in, and then on the other page, if the session exists, you could show the download links?

Of course this is just a simple suggestion, I have yet to mention security etc. ;)

The problem is I am new to this and this is not my coding. It is another developers work.

Is there no piece of code to add to indicate a link in the current code i posted earlier?

Security???

while starting session

$_SESSION['is_logged_in']['true']

and on download page, you can check

if($_SESSION['is_logged_in']=='true')
{
 do some download work
}

if(isset($_SESSION['web_user_id'])){
     links to downloadable pdf
}
