    Copy a website?

    I made a website a few years ago. The site is still up, but I don't have the credentials to access FTP upload anymore.
    The site wants me to log on using the original dialup in order to gain administrative access.

    The site is not complex, but it would take quite a while to download it in its entirety.
    Is there a utility that will make this easier?

    Yes. But as usual I can't remember it.

    Look up "webspider" on google for some pointers I think. I will have a look for you later, but have a meeting right now...

            I tried several windows based tools. No one came close to wget.
            If you want I can make a copy of your website,zip it up, and put it online so you can download it.

              Cheers efty.

              I have downloaded WebSpider. It kind of works, but I do not know enough German to configure it properly. I have got wget, i'll have a try first.

              Thanks for the offer

                Or try this one (it looks promising and the shareware version should be enough):

                  Erm...

                  There's one called HT... erm something.

                  LOL. Amazing, not a one of us can remember the names of the GOOD tools for this.

                  Frontpage can do it.

                      I think Gurm is fishing... euhm ... hinting at this one:
                      HTTrack is a free software (GNU GPL) offline browser: it copies websites to your computer, so you can browse them offline, mirror them, or archive them.


                      I use this one (the Windows version), and it is quite good.

                              does this HTTRACK also download the java appalets for the site? I have a prof that is looking for a program such as this for teaching his physics classes, this sounds to be like the thing he's looking for, if it does indeed also download the java appalets.
