That doesn't solve the problem. If a link points to, say, download.zip , both the downloaded zip, and the saved url file, will have the leafname download/zip , so that one overwrites the other. I would support Jim's earlier suggestion that the url file should be named with a /url extension. Even download/zip/url would be ok. Tony
