If you're trying to grab the data from a browser you're out of luck, as you'll only get the output of the php scripts, not the script itself.

If that's all you want, then use the command line tool WGET. There's your 'man' page that describes it fully, but here's a good shortcut I googled:-

wget --mirror -w 2 -p --html-extension --convert-links -P ~/Desktop/http://www.yoursite.com/

It'll download the entire site - links and all - and rename all files and convert request strings into static HTML pages. Nice tool!

Hi, that comand should be entirely in the terminal ?
Cause I get command not found, sorry but I am not that good in terminal and unix commands, can I just paste it as it is ?
Thx.

Unfortunately, wget doesn't come bundled with OS X so you'll have to download it. Here's the link: http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/wget.html

But that's only helpful if you have the developer tools installed so you can make use of GCC and make... If not, you can download fink (sorry phil!) and install a binary. Or get on google and search for one, incase someone has made one available without the need for fink.

Alternatively, you could use curl which does come bundled with OS X (although, I don't think it'll do quite what simon suggested, but I don't know). Open up terminal and `man curl'

As usual, I may be giving you duff gen, but I think I'm right...

webgrabber is quite a handy wee utility - and no terminal bollox required!
