Sweet!

Just snatched a site into Linux Mint 8. Had to replace the leading “-” characters with “–”, as in -recursive became –recursive, but then it worked great. Rusty old ex-tech’s request: can you make it a simple bash script? I suspect its just the above with variables, but I forget how to parse. Please don’t say RTFM; I lack the time this month, but could really use this.

Many thanks.

@Rava I dont think so , that we have such a tweak, it parses html files but not the CSS ones, I went through the wget manual and found nothing regarding this, you can google for some website copy tool for linux if you need this done .

Hi, I tried that with a webpage. The one is https, but all was OK when using –no-check-certificate

I used “-r –no-check-certificate -page-requisites” only. The problem: The main css file is saved, and in it the other css files are linked with
@import url(bla.css);
@import url(blubb.css);
…

and none of these are saved at all. Is there a wget tweak that also makes wget save these files as well?

–page-requisites itself should be enough to make wget do it, but it seems it just won’t. Using wget 1.11.1
