    Download ASP Site

    Does anyone know how to download an ASP Website.

    I have been using WinHTTRack but it can only go so far. The website is written using ASP and I wish to follow all of the links and get downloaded locally.

    Anyone have an ideas?

    Do you want to get the ASP source code?

      Nothing except hacking the site will get you the source code

        Was possible with older, unpatched versions of IIS

          I want to download the site locally so I can navigate it.

          Ideally I would like to go through all the links and download it locally (converting to HTML even).

            Disclaimer : I am not advocating scraping sites you don't own or otherwise have permission to do this to.

            If you have access to a Linux box or a nix type command line shell you can get it with wget. There is some tidying up to do afterwards but it should at least get all the pages for you.

            Otherwise it's a pain in the arse to scrape asp sites because of the way they tend to be structured and the way the links between pages are constructed.

              Came across that but dont have Linux setup.

              Surely there is some straight forward software somewhere can recommend.

              Basically Im putting together an online catalogue of a supplier of mine for upload into my own website(Im allowed to do this). But Im trying to automate the process and need the site locally to do it.

                Are there any Firefox tools/plugins that might help? Might be worth a look?

                Edit: on the wrong machine at the mo so can't check my own toolkits.

                  In which case can you get him to dump the file structure onto a cd/dvd for you?

                  Or make it accessable via ftp so you can grab the whole thing that way?

                    The problem is MF then has to have the server side stuff to use it.
