wget download aspx page

Question

I want to download the web page http://www.codeproject.com/KB/tips/ModelViewController.aspx using wget, so I simply used the really basic command:

wget http://www.codeproject.com/KB/tips/ModelViewController.aspx

What I received was a file with the .aspx extension, which could not be displayed correctly in a regular browser.

How can I download that web page?

Answer 1

Courtesy of the wget manual page (first result of a web search on "wget options", btw):

wget -E http://whatever.url.example.com/x/y/z/foo.aspx

If you also wish to download all related media (CSS, images, etc.), use -p, possibly with --convert-links (rewrites the page for offline viewing):

wget -Ep --convert-links http://whatever.url.example.com/x/y/z/foo.aspx
