Mass Download Plug-in?

[stressball]

I know it is possible to grab a .zip file of your favorites, however I'm looking for a bit more than that. I have searched through the documentation, and the plug-in pack, and have not found the answer, so I figured I'd post it here.

I have been asked by the people I am building the Coppermine Photo Gallery for if there is a way to do a mass downalod of all the pictures in an album, preferably with just a click of a button. The people I speak of are marketing professionals who aren't computer-savvy and do not know how to do this any other way. This wouldn't be a problem if I was managing the system, but since I'm turning it over to them, I think there needs to be a cleaner and user-friendly (especially newbie-friendly) solution.

If this is already available, then you have my apologies. If it's not, then perhaps this could be a helpful feature in the next release? Or it could be a pet project for one of the contributors. If this is not currently available, does anyone have any suggestions towards this idea? Anyone want to pick it up and code it?

Thanks for your time.

No, not available.

Has been requested often already, and is on our todo-list (with low priority though). There have even been suggestions for such a feature as a contribution for this year's Google summer of Code. For details, review the feature requests board.

For now I suggest using a website copier like Httrack.

Thank you for your quick response and suggestion. I'll look into it.
