The original question was 'from server to the client' which your answer (whilst factually correct) does not fulfill to download from server to client, you need a web listener with access to your file, then you need only
issue a web.show_document([URL]) inside your form, and the file will be downloaded to the web browser.

File upload (as Dana correctly summises) is another kettle of fish, however, this may be resolved by either
writing a java bean to do the upload or taking advantage of the file upload capabilities of WebDB.
