Any ideas?
hi nikolaus,
in windows, you're supposed to use %VARIABLE_NAME% for variable substitution.
try using %1% instead of %1.
AFAIK it's ok to use %1, because it is a special case. Also the error
would be a 404 or some wget error in that case the variable gets
substituted in a wrong way or not? (actually even than you get a 200
response with that url)
I just tried using the command inside a batch-file and came across
another problem: You used a lowercase -s wich is not recognized by my
wget-version, but a uppercase -S is. i guess you should change that.
I would guess wget is not in your PATH.
Try using "c:\path\to\the dircetory\wget.exe" instead of just wget.
If this too does not hel at explicit "--restrict-file-names=windows" to
your options, so wget does not try to use the ? inside a filename.
(normally not needed)
So a should-work-for-all-means-version is
"c:\path\wget.exe" -S --save-headers --restrict-file-names=windows
"http://www.nndc.bnl.gov/ensdf/browseds.jsp?nuc=%1&class=Arc"
Of course just one line, but my dump mail-editor wrapped it.
