WebStripper - An offline browser that allows you to copy web pages or entire sites to disk for viewing offline WebStripper is an offline browser that will allow you to copy web pages or entire sites to disk for viewing offline.
Benefits of WebStripper:
No need to pay expensive call charges while browsing web sites - WebStripper will quickly download them and once done you can disconnect and browse offline at your own pace.
Keep a permanent copy. Web sites can disappear overnight. With a copy of the site stored by WebStripper you will always have your own copy to refer back to.
Check for updates. WebStripper can revisit a site whenever you want to check for, and download, any new or changed pages. The pages are then listed on the What's New section of WebStripper.
Easy to use. When you click the New Site button WebStripper grabs the address from your browser. Another click and you're downloading. It really is that easy and the default options are the ones you'll use most often. If not just step through the wizard to change them and tell WebStripper exactly which pages to fetch.
Versatile. WebStripper gives you many options for selecting what to download by file type, location and size.
Fast. WebStrippers multi-threaded downloading engine downloads pages fast. You can choose how many threads to use and whether to download text only or the full page including graphics.
Thorough. Some sites can be difficult to grab if they come from CGI scripts or contain JavaScript. WebStripper can't promise to download 100% of websites but it in most cases it does a very good job of downloading them.
Choice of browser. WebStripper has a built in browser for viewing sites but it can also display the pages in your own default browser.
Here are some key features of "WebStripper":
Four easy ways to enter an address:
- Address grabber fetches the address of the page currently showing in your browser.
- Optional clipboard listener looks for cut and pasted web addresses.
- Drag and drop links from your browser.
- If all else fails you can just type in the address.
Retrieves HTML pages including all links to graphics, sound, video etc. Retrieved sites look just as they would on the web. Scripts still run correctly. Links are converted to point to the files on your own disk. (Links to files you selected not to download are left pointing to the internet so you can go back online to follow links to other pages and sites)
Select anything from a single page to a whole site to a group of sites. If you want to be really choosy you can even tell WebStripper the depth of pages to retrieve.
Speed up downloading by opting to retrieve text only, or no graphics, no multimedia. Options to ignore large files and small files.
Pause and resume lets you stop a download at any point and resume it later. Useful for large sites which may take several sessions.
Update: Re-visits a site and just fetches any new or changed pages.
Dial protection stops your browser opening an internet connection when you view pages.
One-click options to browse the downloaded site, view the files in windows explorer or view a list of what's new.
Site tree makes it easy to organise and find your downloaded sites.
WebStripper preserves the directory structure of the site. Many directories contain files with the same name which could easily get mixed up. It also makes the site much easier the look at in windows explorer.
Optional disconnect when done. Ideal for unattended operation - start WebStripper and go for a cup of tea safe in the knowledge that WebStripper will hang up the phone when it's done.
Multi threading. WebStripper can download many files at once making it very fast. The number of threads can be controlled by the user. If you have a slow connection just up the number of threads. On the other hand if you want WebStripper to work quietly in the background set the number threads to just one. It'll do it's thing while you use the web for other things.
Stores all inter-file links as relative paths so you can copy downloaded sites to a new location, even to a different disk making it ideal for copying websites onto CD for presentaions etc.
Downloads files produced from CGI scripts and other files with extensions other than HTM/HTML. This includes PHP, ASP, SHTML, CGI and any other dynamic file type.
Filters: Filters provide very fine control over what is and isn't downloaded. You can filter based on file name, extension, folder, server and query string (The bit after a '?'). You can use more than one filter on a site.
Scheduling: You can set a site to be downloaded at a future date and time.
AutoUpdate: This feature will make WebStripper visit a site at selected intervals to download new or changed material. You can specify an update on a specific date each month or on selected days of the week. You can even download at regular intervals through out the working day.
