SWF is the file format used by Macromedia Flash to deliver graphics, animation and sound over the Internet. Almost 90% of web users can view SWF content without having to install a plug-in, and over 200 million people have downloaded the Flash player.

Macromedia published the specifications for SWF in April 1998. This site has resources for programmers who want to read, write or play SWF files.

Hope this helps

Do you mean save the .swf file to your hard drive?

If you use Windows, look in your "C:\Windows\Temporary Internet Files" folder for the file. Then just save it somewhere else on your hard drive.

If there is no answer on Google, then there is no question.

You can also enter the URL to the .swf file in the location/address field of your browser, then use FILE > SAVE AS to save the file to your hard drive.

Good luck,

Brian
