Hi friends,

      

  Is it possible to enable local drive caching for the images ( not in temp) so that every time the page is accessed will load from local rather than requesting to the server always.

While theoretically possible, you would have to have control over the end users machine, in order to guarantee that the files will be there.

You cannot (using actionscript2) download and save files to anywhere other than the cache (which is automatic browser behavior), as actionscript 2 has no access to the local machine due to the sandbox.

only if you're creating an air file do you have access to the local file system.
