Requirements

SlashOrg Downloader should run on most Unix or Windows servers (the PHP iconv extension is required for unicode support).

• A PHP 4 or 5 compatible Web server
  
• A MySQL 4.x or 5.x database
  
• The following operating systems are compatible with SOrg Downloader: Windows 2000, Linux 2.4/2.6, FreeBSD 5.x/6.x, Mac OS X 10.4

Note: some hosting companies limit the maximum size of POST uploaded files ('post_max_size' and 'upload_max_filesize' PHP configuration parameters) to a rather low value, as well as deactivating various file handling functions (like unlink or rmdir). I suggest you avoid such companies ).

SlashOrg Downloader supports servers running with Magic Quotes or Safemode activated.


Online demo

So that you can check out the software before you install it on you own Web site, I've installed a demo version. Click on the image below and log on as demo/demo. You might also want to switch the language over to English by clicking on the "Préférences" link at the top (you choose the default language via the setup wizard).



Important: Please don't attempt to use this demo to upload large files. Thank you!
