I suspect that the reason that it appears that the download link has
"view=markup" and appears to just refresh the page is because the link in
the HTML looks like:

   <a href="">

That is, it has no target href.  The browser is just going to treat that as
 a self-reference.

And the cause is my fault.  I wrote that file.ezt template logic to always
recommend the download view even when that view is not available (due to
"co" not being in the allowed_views list).

I've just committed a fix for this.  Now, if the template is setup to hide
binary file contents, and the "co" (checkout/download) view is disabled in
viewvc.conf, the template will say, "This file's contents are not viewable."
but will *not* go on to recommend using the download view.
