i want to make use of the search.json produce by twitter here. but i hope that the json file can be automatically saved to a fixed location instead of having a pop-out save as dialog window.
how can i make it possible? thank you .

What kind of client is this for - browser, Java desktop app, something else?
So you are writing a web application the user views on a web browser, and you want to save the file locally on the user's hard disk? Is that correct?
If so, then no, you can't do that. This is a security feature that there is no easy way around (thank goodness). The only way around with Java would be to make a Signed Applet that has security permissions to save to the local file system.

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to
run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
