Right-click, Save As...?


Sometimes that works -- if you're clicking on a link phrase, it will.
If someone has left you a complete URL path to the file, and you Go to that, it
will do a "left button" load to its temp file, no way to override.

Use the Force, Luke....

Or more particularly, use Bill's Desktop Metaphor.

Simply drag and drop anything you want to upload
(files, folders) into the directory you are looking
at with the IE browser in FTP mode.

This isn't prominently explained anywhere in the
HELP files because everybody just *knows* it.

Wow! I never would have thought that the drag-n-drop would work over the Net
like that. In my case, too much knowedge was a bad thing -- I knew how much
was involved, and just never thought that this might work.

I've used drag-n-drop for some pretty weird things. Didi you know that when a
digital camera is hooked up via USB, and appears as a "removable device" on
your desktop, that you can drag and drop any kind of file into your camera's
memory card? Nice emergency backup trick. --Mike K.

I tried to get in a week or so ago and couldn't get in. I just passed it off
as one of those days until I saw the posts in this group this evening and
have tried several times tonight and still can't get in. RM~

I d.l.'d something Friday. It took me all afternoon to get in the quay. I
think it's a simple matter of the server not allowing all that many
connections vs. the many people who desire access.

I can't complain about the price, however....

I just accessed it.
It was a bit slow and operated in bits and jumps.
I tried again and received the error , "Maximum number of users
connected, try again later", or at least something to that effect.

Apparently the site is receiving some very heavy use.
I tried both Mozilla and Internet Explorer and both worked although it
took a few tries.

The site only has a capacity of ten users and it is usually busy. I
tried yesterday and today and got the message. Try it at about 2 in the
morning and it might work. They just need a better server or ISP. I have
gotten some good schematics for my Hammarlund, Hallicrafters, RME, etc.
from them.

Ken runs BAMA out of his own pocket and that puts constraints on the
capacity of the site. He does quite well with what facilities he has
available, and I'll bet that when he started the site he had no idea
how many users he would attract or what a large quantity and variety
of manuals he would be hosting.
