Description
If I upload a file (ZIP for instance), and point to that file as a Resource/UploadedFile, I am presented with two possibilites for the resource - I can either select to use a pop-up window or not.
when I click the link defined as non-pop-up, I move forward to a page with the description printed, can download the file and then need to click the back button to return to the course page.
when I click the link defined as pop-up, I am presented with a blank new window, can download the file and then need to close the empty window return to the course page.
I guess I'm asking whether others see the same or whether I have some odd setup? If not, is the behaviour between the two inconsistent - shouldn't the description be presented in the pop-up window?
As a nice touch, the description field is mandatory, so maybe if it just contains a '.' (full-stop) or any single chartacter, possibly that could flag view.php NOT to leave the course page at all.

Thanks, Paul. Yes, your idea is a much better way to handle that case. I'll look into it very shortly.
