Time delay

[mrelusive]

This is code i used for saving pictures to user computer on button click:

// Create a new instance of the FileReference class to work with.
var myfileReference:FileReference = new FileReference();

// Create a new URLRequest object specifying the location or URL of the download file.
// URL
// var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("htp://ww.flashwonderland.com/index.html");
// relative location
var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("htp://ww.mywebsite.com/picture.png");

function downloadFile (event:MouseEvent):void {

	// Call the download method with the URLRequest object as the parameter.
	myfileReference.download(myRequest);
	
}

// Hook up the button with the function downloadFile
goBTN.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, downloadFile);

On goBTN (button) click it shows saving window at the same time.
Can showing window be delayd for 3 second?

use a timer to delay call to

myfileReference.download(myRequest);

although now that i have mentioned that, maybe you will have problems with initiating download out of the mouse click event, but on that later.

i had problems with this recenlty, using the save method, i had to split mouse click into mouse up and down.
