Embedded Flash file download for offline viewing

[Guest]

Folks:


I would like to download adobe macromedia flash (audio/video) files embedded
in various web pages.

So far I have downloaded and installed the latest version of the Firefox
browser. Next I did:

Tools >> Page Info >> Media tab >> save as.

I then select the desired download folder. So far it looks that only
graphic files are being downloaded rather than (SWF) macromedia flash.

* Just wondering if maybe there is some add-on that I need for fireFox ?

Actually I an working on the pages of a book called "Think & Grow Rich."

Before you save the Web page containing the Flash, you have to actually
display the page. Then, when you select Save Page As, be sure to have
"Web page, complete" in the "Save as type" area at the bottom of the
Save As window. This will save the HTML and then create a subfolder to
save all the items used in the Web page (Flash, images, etc). The links
in the HTML will be adjusted to point to the subfolder instead of the
source server.

It's good that you're using Firefox. I don't know if this works with
IE. (It does work with SeaMonkey.)
