Javascript How to Copy Remote File to My Hardisk?

[gan123]

All,

Hi, I'm trying to use Javascript to download and copy some image files from the Internet to my local harddisk. It works like f1.GetFile("c:\abc.txt&quot and f1.Copy("c:\temp\abc.txt&quot . Just that the source file location is on the webserver, like
f1.GetFile("

http://www.asdf.com/abc.gif").

Any tips of how to do that? the GetFile function only can copy from local hardisk, but remote can't.

Thanks.
Gan

Hmmm - well if URL's don't work you could try getting them from the temporary internet files? I think the only way you could access server based files, is by using server side scripts - PERL etc, but you may be able to get them from the client machine, if they have got them in their cache.
