XMLHttpRequest - Byte Stream
Hi,Is it possible to download a file "as it is" (byte for byte)?
I mean when I start a download by new XMLHttpRequest() and get the response by obj.responseText the data is only accessible regarding file encoding.
For my widget YouTube Player I wanted to download a FLV video file from YouTube and save it on the disk. But I found no way to do that.
Something like a byte stream or array would be nice.
obj.responseBody would be what I need, but it's not implemented in Opera.
Anyone has an idea?
Thanks!

Found this: http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest2/#the-responsebody-attribute
Anyone knows when Opera will implement this?
