Cory, Ben, Garl -- Thanks for your help. The problem wasn't so much with me not knowing how to use wget as it was with the fact that the to-be-cloned site was hosted on AOL: The index page was so full of javascript garbage that wget couldn't parse anything, so it just downloaded the index page and stopped there.
I finally found another page on her site that didn't have a bunch of garbage in it, and after twiddling with wget's settings a while, I finally suceeded in getting her entire site. I also needed to clone three other sites, one of which is also hosted on AOL. Same problem, but by then I knew the workaround. AOL. It's the scourge of the Internet. Only slightly less evil than Microsoft.
