Saving Flash

How would I save entire flashes to my computer?

I tried right clicking the link and clicking save as but I still have to be connected to the internet to see the flash.

Is there a way to save and later view a flash without the internet? If so, how?

It's because you're saving the link, not the flash.

Using FireFox, open the flash and then click File > Save Page As...

There: saved flash

Ok. More questions.

Does the flash have to be fully loaded?

Is Firefox free?

FireFox is free, yes, and I believe the flash has to be done loading. I could be wrong about that one, though

I had another question about it, in the event that you answered, but I forgot due to sleep deprivation so I guess thats it. Appreciate ya.

Oh now I remember!

Do I really need Firefox? Is that the only program that lets you do it?

No, any browser can save flashes, but that sequence is specific to Mozilla/Firefox and it's the easiest

Heh.

For me it ain't. Apparently I need a macromedia flash player or something (which I can't locate for free) inorder to play the flash I save.

Got any links?

You should be able to just right click and 'Open With' the browser of your choice.

Yeah but I'm trying to save them from the internet and later view them without use of the internet.

Get it? Or was that a little confusing?

When you open them with a browser, it doesn't require an internet connection. The browser is using its plug-ins and acting as a media player.

You could also find a self-playing flash file (in .exe format) and associate .swf files with it. All subsequent double-clicks on .swf files will bring up the self-playing executable, but use it to play the selected file rather than the one married to it.

The only thing to watch for is that the .exe be made with the same or higher version of Flash than the file you're attempting to play.

In the absence of such, you can drag-and-drop the .swf icon into a less-than-full-screen browser.

You can also use the same method with a web browser. All .swf files on my computer are associated with Firefox.

It will work with any browser, though.
