is there anyway in html that a button can be used to capture and download a certain frame of a flash clip.

the flash clip and the button are in the same browser.

also it must be done using flash only, is it possible?

Humm....if you want the HTML button to capture the frame but also want it done just using Flash...I'm confused.
I'm pretty sure that any control of a Flash clip will have to come from the within the original Flash file. Are you trying to allow users to grab a frame from a Flash file you have created or are you trying to grab a frame from other Flash files?
If you are creating the original Flash file, you could probably use ActionScript to allow users to pause the animation and capture the frame. But without the ActionScript build in, I think you're in for a real challenge.
Now if a screen capture is all you want, there's a lot of software out there to do that.
