The poserfashion site works now so you dont need to use webarchive: http://poserfashion.net/flag.htm

A couple of points, as the tutorial states down the bottom, you dont have to make the flag pole a figure, leave it a prop (e.g. skip the setup room bit), when you do the "edit constrained group" part in the cloth room choose "choreographed" instead of "constrained". Because the flag is stationairy it works better this way. I kept getting big problems when using the "contrained" selection and poser kept crashing.
