Make your contents available in a convenient form, so users have no need of things like wget. Remember there are a lot of people on expensive dialup lines, and they don't want to spend a time "live" looking for what they need on your site when they can browse it more easily and cheaply, as well as faster, offline. > Is there an Apache way to do this, have seen it done with > .htaccess but perhaps there is a way to do this from Apache.
