Inetload vs nsisdl
I have read about nsisdl and Inetload plugins in nsis both are being used to download files from net ,,,
I used inetload plugin for downloading files but whenever i use it .. it is unable to download the files ,, it may be because of bad url name , proxy settings etc ,,
but when i tried to download files dirctly from net( using IE) it pops out two windows one saying to save , open cancel
and when i click on "save" another window open telling the loaction where to save and what should the name of the files ...
could Inetload can handle these two windows ,, i am attaching the source code of my file ..
what should i do to get the result
I am needing the solution badly ....
thanx..

NSIS could handle similar dialogs with InstallOptions plugin and message boxes.

E.g. set up a custom page where you collect info about the save file name/location and pass these info to inetc plugin.

Perhaps you have downloaded the attachment .. is it working on yr system means can the script download the rec file from net ?? , I just want to check that i have right proxy or not

Right proxy settings is a matter of every independent system I guess.

If you're unsure you may use the /NOPROXY parameter for a direct download, otherwise the plugin takes the proxy settings specified in IE.

Also, you need to pass a valid local path/file name.

You should set correct path/name for the file on your local system. $4 is not initialized in your script. A lot of examples included to package.
