Ye' old general discussion board. Basically, for everything that isn't covered elsewhere. Come here to shoot the breeze, shoot your mouth off, or whatever suits your fancy. This forum is not for asking programming related questions.
I just tried saving a web page to my desktop and then uploading that HTML file and it's resources to my server...but when I access the page some elements were not there. I assume this is because IE doesn't download images, etc which are declared in CSS sheets...bummer.
So ideally I would like to find a FF extension which does this...I only need a single page but *all* of it's dependencies...
Anyone know of anything? Preferably not a independent application I have to install...thus the FF request but I"ll listen to anything.
I ended up just downloading a crappy template from OSWD web site...but I still want to know of a firefox plugin which could download everything...as I need ot test my integration system with multiple 'nice' looking templates.
I don't want just the page as HTML thought...I need just one page and all it's resources/dependecies...
- CSS
- Images referenced in CSS
- JavaScript
And so on...thats why I thought a FF extension would be best...because it would work off a loaded DOM and be able to determine things like image paths for CSS images or images loaded during javascript onload, etc...

try that
I user Firebug too *high five*
Problem is, I don't really want to manually download files each time I see a web site layout I like and wish to test my integration with that specific design...
Hockey, why are you trying to gank someone's site? That seems a little crooked? If you want it and they are ok with letting you have their work, why not just ask them for it?

Thanks for the vote of confidence.
Basically...I'm testing how well my application integrates into existing designs...for purely aesthetic reasons I wanted a particular design...locally hosted so no one would ever know I yanked the files. Obviously when I release, I would purchase some templates (none of which I have found meet my desires) or hire a designer to crank a few designs out...but until that point...I'm just 'borrowing' the design - nothing more.
I've always used HTTrack to rip down pre-existing client sites as is prior to gaining control over their source. I've since 'switched' to SpiderZilla, which is simply just a firefox plugin that acts as a front-end to HTTrack...
