I dont think Dropbox web has the same functionality as the software on the computers.
If the link on the page is correct (i.e. if you copy and paste it and put it in to a browser and it opens then Dropbox's side works). Same if it works in the desktop software on another machine.
Note, you need to have made a LINK to the file, not just a URL from the folder: https://help.dropbox.com/share/create-and-share-link

Can someone please at least try doing the same thing and tell me what i am doing wrong?
