1. for example, i set the default download folder to default_folder 2. right click on image_01 use "save as" , so make changes to download.lastDir to A_folder 3. download a image_02 (and i also want this image AUTO goes to A_folder BUT i dont want to use right click "save as" , because i used some addons for download such as FireGestures or just drag a image to download) 4. if i want to download image_03 to B_folder, i just need to use "save as" again make changes lastDir

for example: a web page content 6 images, and i want all save to different folder img_01 -> A_folder (use "save as", now the lastDir is A_folder) img_02 -> A_folder (just drag the image auto download without popup the "save as", lastDir still is A_folder) img_03 -> A_folder (do the same as img_02) img_04 -> B_folder (ok now, i want change different folder, use "save as", lastDir changed to B_folder) img_05 -> B_folder (drag the image auto download, lastDir still is B_folder) img_06 -> C_folder (yes, different folder, so use "save as")

so my question is how to dont use "save as" but still can save to lastDir in Firefox -> tool -> options -> main default download loctaion is My Document i selected the option of "ask me the location every time"

can anyone help ? Thankyou

seems the forum ignored the line break

1. for example, i set the default download folder to default_folder

2. right click on image_01 use "save as" , so make changes to download.lastDir to A_folder

3. download a image_02 (and i also want this image AUTO goes to A_folder BUT i dont want to use right click "save as" , because i used some addons for download such as FireGestures or just drag a image to download)

4. if i want to download image_03 to B_folder, i just need to use "save as" again make changes lastDir

for example: a web page content 6 images, and i want all save to different folder

img_01 -> A_folder (use "save as", now the lastDir is A_folder)

img_02 -> A_folder (just drag the image auto download without popup the "save as", lastDir still is A_folder)

img_03 -> A_folder (do the same as img_02)

img_04 -> B_folder (ok now, i want change different folder, use "save as", lastDir changed to B_folder)

img_05 -> B_folder (drag the image auto download, lastDir still is B_folder)

img_06 -> C_folder (yes, different folder, so use "save as")
