Tried to copy sheldon's site the other day in case it ever went offline. Used Httrack ? but didn't have time to read all the blurb and probably wouldn't understand it anyhow. Seemed to grab what I wanted but also a huge amount of stuff I didn't ..presume that's due to it downloading various layers including linked pages? In the end I just stopped it at 3gb download as it seemed to want to go on forever.Can anyone explain how to instruct it only to download what you want in simple English ..or other better ways?

thanks

Bill

also ...why does the return bar move down 2 lines instead of one like the "thanks "  "Bill" is that  due to forum glitches ?

No worries ..sifted through the blurb ..apparently it doesn't download links outside the website by default. Still downloads a lot of crap you don't want though and just needs deleting afterwards
