Download files from web server

[Shay]

Hi

I need my app to check if some files exist locally
and if not exist, it need to connect to some web server and download these files

how do I do that?
is there any wget? or other way to get the files?

the Log of Job.GetString is returning the file raw data
so is it saving the file?, or I need to create somehow file from the GetString?

Sub JobDone (Job As HttpJob)

Dim Error As String
' Dim MP2 As MediaPlayer

Log("JobName = " & Job.JobName & ", Success = " & Job.Success)
If Job.Success = True Then
Log(Job.GetString)
