Anyone familiar with DownloadThemAll AntiContainer? Looking for how to make a plugin. - IllegallySane - 2010-09-10
DownThemAll is great for direct link to images, but I face a problem with sites that direct to an link that CONTAINS the image instead of going straight to the image itself. I downloaded this add-on called AntiContainer that supposedly can help bypass that issue.

This is AntiContainer in a nutshell: "AntiContainer is an extension and framework to DownThemAll! which allows the user to download resources that are normally hidden behind container pages."
There's this link talking about how to write plugins:

I'm not computer language savvy, so I wonder if anyone familiar with JSON can give me a hand.
For example, I want to download all these AwkwardZombie comics:
http://www.awkwardzombie.com/archive1.php
How do I make a plugin to for example download the image behind the url: http://www.awkwardzombie.com/comic1-092006.php which is:
http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f278/katietiedrich/comic1.jpg ?
I THINK it requires Page Examiner, but then again I have no idea.
Can the plugin made for Awkward Zombie also be applicable to other sites? In other words can I just replace words in the plugin to apply it to other sites?
