PLEASE IGNORE MY ABOVE POST! I DID NOT FORMAT PROPERLY!

I'd never heard of Wget before, it's a neat little tool. I couldn't get it to do exactly what I wanted. I'm hoping this is due to me passing the wrong parameters, but it probably has to do with limiatations placed on Wget by the remote web server. Let me set up the scenario:

http://www.url.com/baseball/
The "baseball" folder contains files:
- index.html
- picture.gif
- page2.html
- (folder also contains other files)

Contained in the index.html file are references to picture.gif and page2.html. The index.html does not reference the other files... I don't know the names of these files, but I know they are there. When I run:

wget -r -l1 --no-parent http://www.url.com/baseball/

It will retrieve index.html, picture.gif, and page2.html, but not the other files that I know are present in the directory.

How do I get Wget to retrieve the other files not referenced in index.html? Is it possible?

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
