Check out the FileReference at
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/index.html
Brief overview below.
_fileRef : FileReference;
//set a filename
_filename : String = 'jptest.jpg';
//set a URL
var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest();
urlReq.url = whatever your URL is + _filename;//
//set up a bunch of handlers for progress, errors etc, then
setUpHandlers(_fileRef);
_fileRef.download(urlReq, _filename);
Do the above first when the user clicks a button or similar (just to
keep it simple) then implement it into a right click menu. If I
remember correctly when I was testing downloads, even though I hard
coded the URL while testing, if I ran it locally it never worked. Deploy
it and test it from there.
