I know this isn't a Windows question, but thought maybe someone would happen to know.

I'm wanting to save a Flash scene I saw on a site. It doesn't save as a Flash file, so that I can view in Flash. It's html, and I'm not familiar with converting these types of files or how to go about this. There are several images that go with this.

I have posted on a graphics forum, also, so probably oughta wait patiently for a reply.

Thanks for any clue as to how to do this. I don't expect anyone to dig for the answer for me. Just tell me what you know. :))

not all sites allow u to save the flash file. But u can try and view the flash file and then look for it in your windows temp folder. or if that dont work try this site I'm sure u can find something u like

Carol,

They usually end up in the temporary internet files directory as .swf files. You can copy these to a permanent location on your hard drive, then download a freeware image viewer with Flash Player add-on called Futuris Imager. here's a link:
http://futuris.itsoft.ru/download/ (http://futuris.plastiqueweb.com>http://futuris.plastiqueweb.com</a>

that)

As soon as you open a .swf file with the Flash Player, it will automatically make an association.

Thanks for the tip and the link. I may give that a try. I had saved it in a folder, so there was no problem there.

I had a 'Flash' myself earlier today. Lol I hadn't thought of the Synchronize feature. I just chose to synchronize it, and since the file was set to open in I.E., I then chose to work offline. It works great!

There is no sound with this one, but am assuming that doesn't make a difference. It's just a real neat Flash that I wanted to be able to see offline.

Have a great day!
Carol
