Need help with downloader - Spliff - 07-19-2011
Hi, I was trying to make a downloader with a progress bar which download a link added in the code of the application, I have tried to follow youtube tutorials and downloading the sources in this forum to have an idea but I can't make it, well, actually I made but it didn't work.. xD
Could you help me? For example I have a direct link for a DIRECT download in mediafire or megaupload and I want to add that link to the downloader, and when you open it, it automatically downloads that file to the computer, to the plae you choose or to the desktop or the download folder... anyway I don't mind where it puts the downloaded file.. xD only i want to download it like i said, could ya help me?

Oh i think i know why. It has to be a direct link, like when you click it, it downloads. A mediafire link will not work. You have to use more coding to make it work with mediafire..

To do any downloader with less then 5 lines of code will need to be a direct download, need help with this just pm me.

Have you tried to make one yet, if so did it error at some point or did it just not work. And do you have a function or a class that goes through all of the motions of whatever website you are downloading from.

No with mediafire it will work, but you have to go to the mediafire link, and on the linked text that says "Click here to process download" or whatever, it will give you the direct link.
