Plus one for HTTrack. I used it a couple of months ago to convert a
terrible Joomla hacked site to HTML. It was a pain to use at first,
like having to use Firefox, but it worked as advertised.
Hope that helps.

Hi Kent,
What do you mean by variables being public to the internet? Nobody

Thanks.

That sounds like a great idea. HTML won't get you hacked. Less work
on your end.

Also, I just discovered a MediaWiki extension written by Tim Starling that
may suit your needs. As the name implies, its for dumping to HTML.

As for processing the XML produced by "export" or MediaWiki dump tools,
here is info on that XML schema

Hi Bill,
GPL - licensed HTTrack Website Copier works well (http://www.httrack.com/).
I have not tried it on a MediaWiki site, but it's pretty adept at copying
websites including dynamically generated websites.

I create an "emergency backup" static version of dynamic sites using:
wget -q -N -r -l inf -p -k --adjust-extension http://mysite

I've tried this. It's messy at best. Wiki pages aren't static HTML.
They're dynamically generated and they come with all sorts of style
