is saving SWF files to your computer possible?

[azurill]

When I right click on a SWF file(FLASH)the option save is not there.Can they be saved in some way?

if you use firefox, Tools > Page Info > Media tab. everything on the page is listed there. you can find your SWF file there and click the "Save As..." button. easy to use that to save embeded video, music, "protected" images, flash, whatever.

Or you can try opening it in another window on your browser and then using the File > Save As function on the browser window itself.

It works for both Firefox and IE, and it isn't that hard to do.

Just an alternative:

Go to View >> Page Source and find the source of the file.

The tags you are looking for are <object> ones and under a <param> sub-tag there should be src="/some_directory/some_file.swf". Stick it to the end of the page URL (example: www.somesite.com/some_directory/some_file.swf)

You should see a full-page flash animation/film/whatever so just go to File >> Save.

P.S. It may be a bit more complex but it always works for any type of file, including embedded sounds. But the above mentioned methods are probably easier.
