This request is kind of complicated, but I'm going to attempt to try explaining it.
To give a better understanding, let me show you what I already do.
I go here:
http://www.sportsline.com/nba/photos
or
http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/photos
I put my mouse over the link to the photo that I want, in the lower left corner "java script: gotoPage(3)" appears (3 for example, it can be 0-???)
To enlarge I go here:
http://cbs.sportsline.com/photos/shot/BASK...BA/000/1024x768
or
http://cbs.sportsline.com/photos/shot/FOOT...FL/000/1024x768
and insert the "3" in the section "/000/"
They'll be many times I have to do this 100x+ to get all the photos I want. Because I went on vacation or some other circumstance, I miss alot of photos.
It's even worse for college photos.
I have to right-click the photo found here:
http://www.sportsline.com/collegefootball/photos
or
http://www.sportsline.com/collegebasketball/photos
Information like this will pop up (Example for College Basketball, but college football is the same procedure):
Location: http://images.sportsline.com/u/ap/photos/M...02322_lower.jpg
[Sometimes addresses can be large like this one: http://images.sportsline.com/u/gettyimages...02401_lower.jpg
but you still just copy "51524463GH020_Miami__v_NCSU102401" ]
I have to copy only "MOLG113102322" and paste it here where it says "PASTEHERE":
http://images.sportsline.com/u/ap/photos/P...RE_1024x768.jpg
Now my request, is there any way someone could make a program or Firefox extension that automates this?
Perhaps a program or extension that automatically downloads the photos to a folder?
Even if there was an program/extension that copied and pasted that javascript number (or for college just the section in the Location) to the correct place in the enlargeaddress, or by double clicking it would save the enlarged version of the photo.
Even better would be the ability to automate it when I leave.
These are all just ideas on how it could work, perhaps you guys could make a better one.
Again sorry so long, please forgive me. I just didn't want you to think I was trying to get porn if I just said "Can someone make a
program or extensions to get photos from pages" or something like that.
Anyway, I expect this to have no reply, but hope one of you guys that likes programming will give it a try.
If you read this, please respond, there's nothing more depressing than seeing your request with a big fat "0" in responses.
P.S.- Also, is anyone here a member of the Mozillazine.org forums? If so, could you copy my request to the respective forum? If someone hasn't already.
I would myself but really don't want to get an account to simply post a single request.
If this is in the wrong place feel free to move it (or copy it to another forum where it would apply as "Application" or "Request" or someting. Thanks.
