I know frontpage's import web wizard will do this, and I have seen another app that would but right now it is escaping me. If I come up with it I will msg you.

yeah dude, i know what i'm saying can count as spam cuz i'm telling u you are spamming, but the point is, you cannot download a whole site and get the source code... if the site has php, you will get the output html only, and... i dunno, but what you are doing sounds a bit illegal, what is your goal?

What he is trying to achieve, if you read his first post is to download an entire site for later viewing on his computer at home, becuase he doesn't have a net connection there.

Do you want to download all the content?

Have you ever heard a tool named "wget"? I've read it can do that, but unfortunately I forget how technically to do that.

You better find it in Google and maybe there is someone who knows about "wget" who can help you.

Hope helps.

for one i have already got all the source code for this site, its freely downloadable idiot, you cannot download a pure php page unless the server has <span style='color:blue' title='I&#39;m naughty, are you naughty?'>smurf</span> up, why the hell would i want the php forums code, i want the actual topics so i can check em all out at home, try and save your page now, see that its called html, ya know the output from the php, the thing i need!

thank you bech, i was'nt here to defend myself
