  • 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...

          There's a link from Xaldon Technology (Germany). Not sure it's the same but you tell me....

            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 (GPL, libre/free software) and easy-to-use offline browser utility. It allows you to download a World Wide Web site from the Internet to a local directory, building recursively all directories, getting HTML, images, and other files from the server to your computer. HTTrack arranges the original site's relative link-structure. Simply open a page of the 'mirrored' website in your browser, and you can browse the site from link to link, as if you were viewing it online. HTTrack can also update an existing mirrored site, and resume interrupted downloads. HTTrack is fully configurable, and has an integrated help system. WinHTTrack is the Windows 2000/XP/Vista/Seven/8 release of HTTrack, and WebHTTrack the Linux/Unix/BSD release.


                      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.
