How to create a single download link for 2 pdf files in php

Question

I'm very new to PHP and wanted to know how to create a single download link for 2 pdf files using php. Do I need to write an individual download.php file to execute or can I simply add it to my index page using an tag in html? I need it to work across all browsers.

I have 2 documents that are in their own folder named "forms" and not sure how to create a simple text link that will let a user download both documents in a single click.

I agree with the other answers, this is not the best practice, you should use one button/link for each file, it's even easier to understand what's been displayed for the user. You should probably use two icons or links.

Look up for w3schools, they have good tutorials of how to use icons, links, html, css and javascript.

There are some links:
