[Hidden-tech] downloading an entire web directory

[McK66 Productions]

Another great tool is HTTrack - a website copying utility...
http://www.httrack.com/


I imagine that you could start with the URL of the specific directory, rather than the site homepage, to get what you need...
Settings even allow for how many levels down you want to go...
Might be worth a look!

Best wishes,

Glenn,
yes wget is a good way to do it - it does require using the command line, and neither unix 
(that really is linux) nor programming

You didn't say your platform, so here are both - on mac open a terminal window, on the PC 
use command.com

Then The short form for the command is:
         wget -r http://THE-URL-IN-QUESTION.COM/etc-etc-etc

For more,
     some examples here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wget
     full details here: http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/manual/wget.html
