Online Stopwatch - How to Download ?
 
I am using the online stopwatch found at:

http://www.online-stopwatch.com/full-screen-stopwatch/

How can I save this flash file and run it offline.

(Edited after finding the solution)

When viewing the stopwatch online, click on "Web" at top left, click "Save as", choose folder location, then click "ok".

When you double click on the saved file, your web browser will open and run the flash file.

Note: It actually created a new folder in which it was placed.

Try this:

Code:

wget http://www.online-stopwatch.com/online-stopwatch.swf
or

Code:

curl -o online-stopwatch.swf http://www.online-stopwatch.com/online-stopwatch.swf
and then it should be possible to start it with 'firefox online-stopwatch.swf' (on the desktop, at least. Probably also on the tablet.)

In terminal I get "/bin/sh: wget: not found"

I think you can just enter this
Code:

http://www.online-stopwatch.com/online-stopwatch.swf
...into MicroB's address bar and use Save As. To launch, open it in MicroB or KMPlayer or you can double-click on it from File Manager.

ah, have you installed wget. You may need to be root to run.

Before starting, I did this: sudo gainroot (return)

That's a great idea -- I wish more people would do that (edit the original post with the answer). It helps a lot in navigating the noise of a thread.

I've often wished that threads could have a "history" section where the back & forth of "try this" "didn't work" "oops try that" could get archived, perhaps by the person who created the thread). People viewing the thread could get to the history, but it wouldn't be what you see by default.

I mentioned the alternative, 'curl', because at least on my setup (still OS2007) 'curl' was included by default. 'wget' is extra. Both solutions (see my post) work for downloading the file.
