Sadly, -A and -R do not match the query string portion of a URL (anything past a "?"). Just the filename portion (which in this case, is "catalog.html" for every URL you wanted to match against). You can see this reflected (perhaps a bit cryptically) by the debug messages explaining the failed match (they all have "(catalog.html)" after they give the full URL). At some point it is hoped that Wget will have regular exrpessions support, for matching against the entire URL; for now I'm afraid there's not much you can do directly with wget to work around this problem. -- Micah J.
