Downloading sites to your hard drive, while keeping all the links intact

    Got to do some amendments to the http://www.formula1.com/ website tomorrow and I'm looking to get a bit of a headstart on the project.

    I need to download alll the images, css, javascript & html locally while keeping the urls intact. The project is very specific and there's no development version which I can update to without tons of red tape.

    Any programs or extensions which can do this?

    Cheers,

    imacros can do this well. Not free though.
    Do a search for imacros on google.

    You could use wget to spider the site, creating a mirror in whichever directory you like.

    Ended up with wget as I'm on a mac. Although there are pitfalls; its inability parse CSS files for background images, @import methods & conditional comments. There must be an extension for it somewhere?

    Cheers Gary, have to spread the green around before giving more.
