Downloading Subfolders, etc.

Name: Anonymous 2006-03-03 1:05

All right, I need to download a series of folders and subfolders from a site systematically.

With, Downloadthemall, I could download all of the links that all of the pages had, however, it will not retrieve subfolders and files in those subfolders.

What firefox plug-ins/apps can I get to do this?

Also, I need to download all of the .rm files from this index : http://mail.sportsstuff.com/towables/ for a video project I am working on. Saving the page does not work, downloadthemall does not work, I need to know how to save the folders and subfolders and etc.

Thanks for reading.

google for wget win32 and read (very carefully) the documentation. Wget is a piece of software that acts like a webbrowser but you can tell it to visit subdirectories and visit all the links it finds. It will do _EXACTLY_ what you want. It is very configurable, but it is a commandline program which means you will have to do a lot of typing with cryptic codes to tell the software to do certain things (like visit subdirectories, and only download .rm files for example)

The documentation is extensive and very well written.

Suggest creating a script for it to use it with your settings. The command line to call wget could very easily exceed 160 characters if you want to properly set a valid User-Agent and so on.

Don't change these.
