download webpage and dependencies, including css images

Question

Hello,

often I need to download a webpage and then edit it offline. I have tried a few tools and the main feature they lack is downloading images referenced in the CSS files.

Is there a tool (for Linux) that will download everything so that the webpage will render the same offline (excluding AJAX)?

thanks

Answer 1

wget

Answer 2

wget --page-requisites http://example.com/your/page.html

This option causes Wget to download all the files that are necessary to properly display a given html page. This includes such things as inlined images, sounds, and referenced stylesheets.

EDIT: meder is right: stock wget does not parse and download css images. there is, however, a patch that adds this feature: [1, 2]
