If you are using drupal 4.7.x and the views module you can build a
custom taxonomy view which will include the links to the files directly.
If you'd like more details I could help you with this.  

Man that views module is cool!

Subject: [support] Asking for Suggestions on Taxonomy of attached
documents

Hi,

I'm working with a site where we want to use taxonomy to organize files,
not just pages.  Does anyone have any good ideas about how to do this?

Right now, the thought is to make a separate node for each file and
attach the file to that node.  That works pretty well, but the problem
is that if you try to list all the taxonomy items related to a
particular term, it displays a list of the titles of the pages (linking
to the pages) and the link to the document itself as the content.  This
is a bit confusing, since if you click on the title it takes you to a
page with the only content being a link to the document - and you could
have just clicked on the link to the document from the term list page.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Matthew O'Malley
