[HJG] Someone has uploaded a lot of pictures to [Flickr],
and I want to show them someplace where no internet is available.

The pages at Flickr have a lot of links, icons etc.,
so a simple recursive download with e.g. wget would fetch lots of unwanted stuff.

So the first step is to downloading the html-pages from that person,
extract the links to the photos from them,
then download the photo-pages (containing titles and descriptions),
and the pictures in the selected size.

Then we can make our [Flickr Offline Photoalbum].

First draft for the download:
  package require http

  proc getPage { url } {
       set token [::http::geturl $url]
       set data [::http::data $token]
       ::http::cleanup $token
       return $data
  }

 #catch {console show}	;##

  set url http://www.flickr.com/photos/siegfrieden
  set filename "s01.html"

  set data  [ getPage $url ]
 #puts "$data"		;##
  set fileId [open $filename "w"]
  puts -nonewline $fileId $data
  close $fileId

This will only get the first html-page,
so the next step is to also get the other pages, 
extract all the informations we need,
and then fetch the pictures.
