I'm looking for a good Webspider, which can be used in Tcmd.

Hi All,

Anybody know a good free webspider for Tcmd?
Need to get some html pages from websites, which are spread over several subfolders.

Thanks!

Thanks for the tip, but i got those.

Problem with those plugins is that i have to browse to every subfolder and get the files.
I basically want to go to the parent folder and copy all of the folders under it to my local drive. (like Treecopy or something)

Greetings.

Windows synchronise feature might help?

W!ke98,
Maybe something like Teleport Pro...?

Yes Teleport Pro I have used before, yet it's not free.
I also hoped to find a plugin for Tcmd.

Thanks!

In Internet Explorer there is a feature built in: Synchronise. If you have a favorite url, open its context menu, and choose "Make available offline" and follow the instructions.

Any idea where IE puts the files you download?
Can't find them

This IE feature looks a bit like the FrontPage "Import Web" feature.

Thanks!

Here:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\

Hmm why not in:
C:\WINDOWS\Offline Web Pages\

Is there any way to change the offline folder path?

Greetings.

That is only a virtual folder.
There is a way, but then not only the offline files will be moved, but all temporary files also. Another smart move from M$...

It's not a real plugin, but I'm happily using wget for these kind of things.

Yes, and AFAIK the best utility of this kind.
