Save As PHP Script

Having a link to a media file that would normally play in a browser allows you to “Save Page As” in Firefox to save the media. (Music, Video, etc.) A minor annoyance is that sometimes the video or the audio starts to play immediately making you press pause while you wait for it to download.

The script below contains a text field where you enter the url of anything you want so you can right click a generated link to download the material. It requires an extension in the url provided. Something like http://audio.hiphopdx.com/20080909-Tony_Sunshine-Here_I_Am_(Feat_Jadakiss)-HHDX.mp3
