Just a little "hack" for displaying top download table listings as hyperlinks.

SSI
In status.pl search for
print " <tr>\n <td>$descript_array{$file_id}</td>\n <td><img src=\"$base_gif/$img\" width=$img_width height=10> $name_array{$file_id}</td>\n </tr>\n";
}
else {
print " <tr>\n <td>$file_id</td>\n <td><img src=\"$base_gif/$img\" width=$img_width height=10> $name_array{$file_id}</td>\n </tr>\n";

Replace it with
print " <tr>\n <td><a href=\"path/to/download.pl?file=$file_id\">$descript_array{$file_id}</a></td>\n <td><img src=\"$base_gif/$img\" width=$img_width height=10> $name_array{$file_id}</td>\n </tr>\n";
}
else {
print " <tr>\n <td><a href=\"path/to/download.pl?file=$file_id\">$file_id</a></td>\n <td><img src=\"$base_gif/$img\" width=$img_width height=10> $name_array{$file_id}</td>\n </tr>\n";

-------------------------------------

JavaScript
In stat_js.pl search for
print "document.write('<tr><td>$descript_array{$file_id}</td><td><img src=\"$base_gif/$img\" width=$img_width height=10> $name_array{$file_id}</td></tr>');\n";
}
else {
print "document.write('<tr><td>$file_id</td><td><img src=\"$base_gif/$img\" width=$img_width height=10> $name_array{$file_id}</td></tr>');\n";

Replace with
print "document.write('<tr><td><a href=\"path/to/download.pl?file=$file_id\">$descript_array{$file_id}</a></td><td><img src=\"$base_gif/$img\" width=$img_width height=10> $name_array{$file_id}</td></tr>');\n";
}
else {
print "document.write('<tr><td><a href=\"path/to/download.pl?file=$file_id\">$file_id</a></td><td><img src=\"$base_gif/$img\" width=$img_width height=10> $name_array{$file_id}</td></tr>');\n";

Replace path/to/ with the relative or full path to your download.pl file
In my case the link looks like this: <a href=\"cgi-bin/downloads/download.pl?file=$file_id\">

Now your Top Download table listings should be hyperlinks for both JS and SSI inclusion.

Oh, you might wanna make backups of your files _before_ applying this hack, just in case something goes wrong
