SayPro 116931-2-10 SayPro Lesson Obtaining information from a website
Most websites allows the user to download certain documents, music and graphics. Downloading is the process of copying a file (such as a game or utility) from a website to a computer or external storage device.
The following are the generic steps of downloading a file.
- Click on the download link for the programme you want to download. Many sites offer multiple download links to the same programme, and you only need to choose one of these links.
- You may be asked if you want to save the file or run it from its current location. If you are asked this question, select “Save.” If not, don’t worry — some browsers will automatically choose “Save” for you.
- You will then be asked to select the folder where you want to save the programme or file, using a standard “Save As” dialog box. Pay attention to which folder you select before clicking the “Save” button. It may help you to create a folder like “C:Download” for all of your downloads, but you can use any folder you’d like.
- The download will now begin. Your web browser will keep you updated on the progress of the download by showing a progress bar that fills up as you download. You will also be reminded where you’re saving the file. The file will be saved as “C:Downloaddweepsetup.exe” in the picture below.
Note: You may also see a check box labeled “Close this dialog box when download completes.” If you see this check box, it helps to uncheck this box. You don’t have to, but if you do, it will be easier to find the file after you download it.
- Depending on which file you’re downloading and how fast your connection is, it may take anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes to download. When your download is finished, if you left the “Close this dialog box when download completes” option unchecked, you’ll see a dialog box like this one:
- Now click the “Open” button to run the file you just downloaded. If you don’t see the “Download complete” dialog box, open the folder where you saved the file and double-click on the icon for the file there.
What happens next will depend on the type of file you downloaded. The files you’ll download most often will end in one of two extensions. (An extension is the last few letters of the filename, after the period.) They are:
-
- .EXE files: The file you downloaded is a programme. Follow the on-screen instructions from there to install the programme to your computer and to learn how to run the programme after it’s installed.
- .ZIP files: ZIP is a common file format used to compress and combine files to make them download more quickly. Some versions of Windows (XP and sometimes ME) can read ZIP files without extra software. Otherwise, you will need an unzipping programme to read these ZIP files. Common unzipping programmes are WinZIP, PKZIP, and BitZipper, but there are also many others. Many unzipping programmes are shareware, which means you will need to purchase them if you use them beyond their specified trial period.
SAVING MUSIC FROM A WEBSITE
The following are the steps that a user can follow to download music from a website.
- Choose “Source” from the View Menu. The Windows notepad will open with the source code.
- Open “Find” in the Edit Menu (CTRL +F.) The Find dialogue will open above the Notepad window.
- Type “mp3” into the “Find What” box. Click on the “Find Next” button. Notepad will highlight the phrase (you may have to move the dialogue box.) It should part of a URL address. If you don’t find it, try different music formats (“.wav,” “.aif”.)
- Copy the entire URL linking to the sound file and paste it into the address window. The song will load into Windows Media Player. Wait for it to play completely.
- Save the file to your hard drive. Choose “Save Media As…” from the File Menu. Use the file browser to navigate to your music folder to save the file.
