save file to desktop

[TimDiacon]

I am creating a cross platform projector in flash and need the user to be able to save content from the disc to their desktop via the projector interface.

This seems like a simple task however using the get URL function opens up a browser window which is untidy and the filereference class won't do it due to a security issue.

Any ideas on how to do this?!

you could use fscommand exec and point to a background installer on the disc

it probably has nothing to do with it but
System.security.allowDomain("http://localhost/");
has something to do with security. maybe that would help

Yeah basically, FileReference shouldn't work locally as it needs server side help. You need a 3rd part app.
