I still think you are not quite understanding how this all works. Also,
and this will sound like nitpicking but it is not, do *NOT* use spaces in
file or directory names within URLs. "Download Files" should really
really really not have a space in it. But that is a separate issue.

In any case, what do you mean by "modify that line to connect to the php"?
Do you mean that you want to link to a PHP script in that line? There is
no "ver" variable anywhere that I can see.

Also, the PHP code has a clear typo in it -- "_GET" must start with a
dollar sign -- "$_GET". Is this a typo in your posting or is this
actually in the PHP code?

Let's go back a few steps.

What are you trying to do?
