URL rewrite?

Hi,
I have
Flashgot 1.2
Mac OS 10.5.7
Firefox 3.5.2
SpeedDownload 5.2.1

A web page serves ULRs like this:

javascript:showWaitText();document.location.href='http://1.2.3.4/0123456789ABCDEF/?m=dl'

Is there a way to get Flashgot to rewrite the URL, to remove the leading javascript code up to the
quote and the trailing quote?

Ralf

URL where this occurs?


Perhaps the Build Gallery can help - using the JavaScript Functions to strip the unwanted text.

(Don't ask me how to do that?)


Otherwise, if you save the links to a file, then used Vim (or SED or similar) something like this...

Code: Select all

s/.*=\'// ;  remove everything up to "http"
s/\'$//   ;  remove closing ' character
(If you don't know Vim or SED, that probably won't help you much.)

save.tv

It isn't openly accessible AFAIK; I pay a fee.

It looks complicated... (and I only have one URL at a time)

It still requires lots of clicks and keystrokes. My hope is to make it work with Alt-click again,
as it was in the past until save.tv decided to put the javascript stuff around the URL. :-(

FlashGot 1.2.0.1 makes an attempt at it.
How does it work for you?

It works perfectly! Alt-Click does the trick again. What a relief!

Thank you very much!!!
