Downloading Websites

RastaManBob · 8 Jan 2008 at 10:38

Hi there,

Tomorrow I have an open book C++ exam. Although web-access will be disabled we can bring in any content we wish on pen disks/CD's/portable HDD's/etc.

I'm considering grabbing a few tutorials from the web just incase my mind goes blank (Piece of mind if nothing else).

What is the easiest way to download a page? I've done "Save" from Firefox but obviously that is only the current page... I'd rather have the page I'm on plus all pages within it.

Any advice please?

Cheers.

Something like HTTrack?

Absolutely spot on - Brilliant program too... No fancy graphics but gets in there and does its job... Quick and effectively!

Thanks for the advice

Def. a keeper!

Glad you like.

It does store the website in a weird way. It makes a folder for the site but the actual site is in a subfolder of that. The root folder for the site is HTTrack's interface. You load up what you think is a page from the site, it is actually an HTTrack page listing the pages. Suppose it could be helpful but I just move the subfolder out and delete the HTTrack folder.

Already noticed that and have done exactly what you've suggested

... Again, thanks for the heads up!
