Hi all, i have a number of sites which use databases and are run through php script... some of my clients now want to have an offline version of the site on a cd which they can show/give to their clients. |

Tho..everyone would need to install the software on their pc i think .. which kinda defeats the purpose of it unfortunately |

You could make sure that links will take a spider all the way through your site, then run something like wget on the base URL. If the links are done correctly, this should give you a copy of the entire site pretty cleanly. You may need to do some rework to filenames, etc so local linking works, bug wget has some pretty cool options for doing that kind of stuff for you. |

look at roadsend php compiler... it might be just what you need for this. But it still doesn't give you a database. |
