Easy download in Safari

Just explored this feature in Safari and thought of sharing it with you all. I was actually looking for this for a long time and i got this working accidentaly.

Remember the older IE for macs. It allows you to download any file you want from the download manager. I can use the previous downloaded entry and edit the file info and start downloading a new one.

Now in Safari this comes very handy. Yes here is the tip to download any file you want and your Downloads Window just works like a Download Manager. Try doing this:

1. Open any download url want.
2. Copy the URL.
3. Open up Downloads window from Window > Downloads
4. Paste the URL in the window. Just do Command + V and zoom you got it there in the downloads window and the download starts, instantly.

Hope you all love this trick!
