I'm trying to make a patch which can download a file from a URL. I DONT have JITTER so i was thinking JS could do it - problem is i know nothing about JS. Could someone let me know if it's possible / how to do it?

I was wondering if there were any good tutorials, aside from what 

ships with the product, on how to work with JavaScript in MAX?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, I am new to the product.

Hi There,
I was wondering if there were any good tutorials, aside from what  
ships with the product, on how to work with JavaScript in MAX?

but I was hoping there was a way to do this with the js or mxj objects?

Thanks for that f.e. - i'm still sufficiently stupid regarding java for it to completely confuse me though.

If anyone has a bit of time to explain to me how to get this to work i'd appreciate it greatly.

You mean, explain everything or just a few ? Come on, john burton, take 

a Java tutorial on you left hand, and the Writing Java Externals manual 

on your right ! What you got on this link is an already working class. 

So, what you have to do is to adapt it to your needs : like a seperate 

class you'll call from your Java external, or integrated in/as a Java 

external. So better tell us what's your knowledge regarding Java for us

I'm a complete newbie to Java, i find it a but confusing at the moment - finding the 'java-doc' folder helped a little. Right now i don't have time to devote to learning it so i'll put it aside.

Thanks to those who made suggestions - unless anyone has a really easy way of downloading a file from a URL i'll move along.

files (aif or mp3) directly from a URL into an MSP buffer as well as
ftp download/upload.

exactly but it's probably possible with little/no modification to my
stuff.  get in touch if.

I'll be in touch when i finish the little tour i'm on right now.

I'm also interested to see how to save a file fetched from a website.
