Is there a way to save a QuickTime file from an online website.

The link is a java scrip based and doesn?t give you direct link and when it loads inside the browser windows you can't right click to save it or anything?

In the past i have been able to go into the temporary files folder under the user account log in and been able to see the QuickTime file save there and i drag it out, but now its doesn?t show up there.

At work I use Firefox and i was able to find the file in a cache folder in firefox but it was named 83937859 with no extension, i copy it out and renamed it with a .mov extension that worked, but i home with IE 6, can't find it.

i have used that before i remember for a real player file once, wonderful program.

but i can't seem to figure it out the way the website file i want.

the website that i'm going to has the link and they are
javascript:launchit('http://fakename/html/modPlayerLoad.asp?modMovieID=7019&chap_num=1&ModID=116')

when you click on that a new window opens and starts to download the .mov file and it starts to play, on the bottom of page that opens, you now see the real link to the file which you can't right click to copy and paste or anything, once it finish downloading it says done and you no longer see the link so if you dont copy it fast you will have to redownload it again but since its somewhere in the system already it again might not give you a chance to copy the link. I'm sure if i write down each exact address i could download the file but i'm talking about maybe 100 files.

those files also must be somewhere cached in my computer but i can't find it while using IE 6.

Since it worked with Firefox, why not just switch to Firefox? It's clearly the better browser. :p

View source on the popup window that displays the video to get the URL of the file you're viewing, paste that into NetTransport. :) PM me the URL if you need more help.

Ctrl+U for source.
