How do I link to a PDF file?

[kmj2318]

This should be easy, but I’m not sure what to do. I’m linking to the file in my HTML with a href tags.

It works when I’m viewing the local website, but not on the published site. Is there anything I need to do to upload the file onto my website?

This is what I have:

Course Schedule

What would be the reason that it works locally but not on the public site?

Is the pdf uploaded and available on the web, or just locally on your computer?

I’m using Google App Engine to host my site. The pdfs are in my root folder, which gets uploaded when I deploy. I’m hosting images on my site in the same way and they work fine. I’m wondering if it must be something with Google App engine, though I can’t imagine why it wouldn’t work. Hopefully I can get this to work, but in the meantime I’m probably going to have to just upload the pdfs somewhere else and link to them that way.
