For a particular project I have, no server side code is allowed. How can I create the web site in php (with includes, conditionals, etc) and then have that converted into a static html site that I can give to the client? Update: Thanks to everyone who suggested wget. That's what I used. I should have specified that I was on a PC, so I g...

Hi there, I'm attempting to use wget to recursively grab only the .jpg files from a particular website, with a view to creating an amusing screensaver for myself. Not such a lofty goal really. The problem is that the pictures are hosted elsewhere (mfrost.typepad.com), not on the main domain of the website (www.cuteoverload.com). I hav...

This functionality would be similar to using Firefox to "Save Page As" and selecting "Web Page, complete". I'd like to name the files and corresponding directories as s...

I have a huge file with lots of links to files of various types to download. Each line is one download command like: wget 'URL1' wget 'URL2' ... and there are thousands of those.

Hi Is it possible for me to change or assign my server a new IP address every time it needs to make a http request with commands such as wget?

I have been trying to figure out a way to make wget only create a file if the actual download response is valid, meaning no 404 or 500 status code, only 200. However, when using the -O option (to specify filename) it will always create the file, with the content of the error page, and I haven't found a way to specify that it should igno...
The next sentence caught my eye in Wget's manual wget --spider --force-html -i bookmarks.html This feature needs much more work for Wget to get close to the functionality of real web spiders. I find the following lines of code relevant for the spider option in wget. src/ftp.c 780: /* If we're in spider mode, don't really retrie...
