Ok, I did this before, I have used wget and curl but does not work. The reason is, some sites have automated or recursive download
retrieval protection,
meaning, soon as you download it, there is an ad and the image is not
there. http://www.fortunecity.com loves doing this :( If you download
it with a browser it works. So, if I could get safari to save the
document it is currently viewing, it would work. But right now, this
does not work.

Thanks for the input. I don't mean to reject every solution you
submit, but I have tried all of these options. I should have given the
*list* more information on
what I have tried already. Again, thanks.

If Safari can view the page, curl can get it. Curl can be told to follow redirects, and almost anything else you want, UNLESS you are trying to save a receipt or something like that. In that case, you may want to save the source of the document of window 1, or something like that.

So, if you are trying to mimic something Safari can do, you should be able to set curl to do the same thing. If, however, you are trying to save something that you have already done in Safari, you'll have to work with the page that you loaded. Which situation is it? I've done a lot with getting web pages/browsers/servers to give me what I want. I may be able to help.
