Hi,  
This might not the right place to post this question as I think it might related to other languague but I’m using AS3 as my host so… The question is: is there any way to rename a download file/link to our custom name. For example: I use URLLoader to call a download link: [http://www.hosting.com/my\_file.mp3](http://www.hosting.com/my_file.mp3) then a download popup shows a save as dialog with the name my\_file.mp3. Now I want the dialog to show another name that I define like my\_song.mp3  
in sort of my idea:  
call: -download [http://www.hosting.com/my\_file.mp3](http://www.hosting.com/my_file.mp3) -saveas my\_song.mp3

is this possible?
