If a web site has something like the following stored on 'host': ... root\a\u.html root\a\images\v.jpg root\a\images\w.gif ... where the web page 'u.html' contains the references:
'...src="images\v.jpg"...' '...src="images\w.gif"...'.
the images 'v.jpg' and 'w.gif' show nicely when browsing the page 'u.html' at 'host'. However, mirroring 'host\root' web pages using:
'wget -m -p -np http://host/root/'
results in 'wget' creating on my machine:
...
...\host\root\a\u.html
...\host\root\a\images%5Cv.jpg
...\host\root\a\images%5Cw.gif
...\host\root\a\images\...
...
rather than
...
...\host\root\a\u.html
...\host\root\a\images\v.jpg
...\host\root\a\images\w.gif
...
as expected. Needless to say, this results in the images 'v.jpg' and 'w.gif' not displaying when browsing 'u.html' locally because they are renamed and then stored in their "parent" directory.
Has anyone else noticed this behavior?
Has it been previously described and I just missed it?
Is it a bug/feature in 'wget'; i.e., 'wget' handles the '\' not as a directory thingy but as part of the file name thus converting things like 'x\y' to 'x%5Cy' or is it caused by some other part of cygwin?
Also, I seem to remember reading 'wget' as being an orphan--no maintainer. Is this still true and if so, is it because there are other/preferred replacements to 'wget'?
Before digging deeper into this problem, I would greatly appreciate any insight and information anyone can provide me.
I'm running: Win98SE Wget 1.9.1-1 Cygwin 1.5.10-cr-0x5e6 Setup: unix, all users
Thanks,
