Somewhat out of question, but does anyone know of any
software that would
download a web site, or a portion, to a local disk? IE, I would want to be
able to archive part of a web site onto a CDrom, without having to manually
save every image and web page, and manually edit the html links, etc.
Ideally the software would understand that I was planning to burn
650 meg, or 700 meg, etc images, and would break the download into
separate directories/images.
On the Mac... iCab will let you pull down most of a site, it is limited
by the number of levels you tell it to follow links. It will place it all
in a folder, and keep the directory structure in tact (ie: subdirectories
go into sub folders), so that you can just start at the top, and follow
the links locally.
Other than that... I think the other app that I have heard recommended (I
use iCab myself), is called Site Sucker, or Web Sucker, one of those...
it too will pull everything down, retaining links as it goes.
