    Once I have used Internet Download Manager to copy a site, it has a feature called Grabber.

    grow up. if you don't know how to save a webpage, you sure aren't going to be able to do anything with it once you've got it.

    I am just curious to know which website do you want to download and why you want it on your local machine. ;)

    you are never supposed to copy a site but to create a site
    if you have learned to create a site, then you also know how to do all the rest

    it appears to me you want to copy another site and republish it on your own site
    else you would know how to do what you want to do

    copy and paste others is nothing to make a living unless you want to hide all life
    do things in a unique way, create new ideas, then publish YOUR unique ideas.

    copy and upload are very basic skills every true webmaster / web publisher will know how to learn if he/she is serious about WORKING and succeeding.

    if it is your OWN site - log in SSH and do your job or use rsync
    for both you need to be OWNER of the site to copy/download

    anything else is criminal and should never be taught here

    Why are you going to a copy site? That seems unethical. Hopefully, your intention is not bad. You can see the structure of a site through the source code.

    The Source Code works best, but make sure you change the site or you could have BIG legal issues later...

    I use to copy sites just like you have asked, when i was working hard learning web designing, I used to copy entire sites using different softwares like this

    http://www.freedownloadscenter.com/Network_and_Internet/Offline_Browser_Tools/My_Offline_Browser.html

    The only reason made me copy sites was, i wanted to read and explore the site offline because i did not had internet at home and my internet cafe time was limited due to lack of income, i was a student back then in a third world country. Also it was the easiest way for me to explore all the codes behind the design in detail, i was learning how to code back then, so if you have similer reasons or what so ever legal, go on copy sites as much as you like bearing in mind that you are not going to violete the terms and contions of the site owner. (hey copying might be one of them so watch out, if they wont know, who cares.. lol im a student okie..!! lol)
    It is absolutely illigal to violate copyrighted materials, so your intention should be good. DO NOT COPY TO ALTER THE SITE DESIGN, THAT IS MAKING YOURSELF NOT CREATIVE AND LIMIT YOUR THINKING. If in anyways you want to make sites you should build them from your head, its not bad looking at other people's designs just to have a basic idea how they look like and how you will make yours unique, say for example you are building a site for travel and tour company, i recon you have a look at your local T&T sites to just have a basic idea what to put and what not to, because customers are usualy going with the general public idea and strange designs drives them away. I am one of those guys who when visiting a site and it appears to me it hasnt been well designed, i just look for another one, content is crutial but hey you need to enjoy the content you are reading by being in a well designed website.

    Enjoy::p
    NB: im about to shut down my forum, have a look and let me know your ideas... It seems that im lacking a niche here.
