I need some documentation about XUL but I do not have Internet access most of the time. So, I've tried to download the Mozilla Tutorial with the following command:
wget --no-parent -r -l 2 -p -k My intention was to download both the page and its subpages (for example, ). However, even though I passed the --no-parent flag, it keeps getting pages such as .
I do not understand why it happens. How could I achieve the behavior I intended?

You need the trailing slash at the end of the URL.
5Was having a similar issue:
wget -r -l1 --no-parent -nH "" I believe there was an issue with https vs. http. I updated $HOME/.wgetrc to:
header = Accept-Encoding: none header = Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5 header = Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8 header = Connection: keep-alive user_agent = Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:10.0.2) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0.2 referer = robots = off Then changed changed https to http:
wget -r -l1 --no-parent -nH "" The wget program no longer created folders (or retrieved files) from outside the specified directory hierarchy.
I had to disable gzip compression to make it work. I also changed the user-agent because some pages forbid wget. So this is what I've put into my .wgetrc:
header = Accept-Encoding: none
user_agent = Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6
Works great here.
