How to use WGET from an URL for saving like "Save AS" from Firefox?

Hello,

I would like to wget a page that finish like .... "http://...1st-2008/page2"
this is not an html URL ...

Would anyone have idea hwo to retrieve this whole page + picture in it with a general wget command that would also work for PHP, HMTL, none of them (like my example) ... ?

Thank you in advance!
Cheers

URLs are not HTML. HTML is often part or all of the content in the HTTP data requested.

When you try to use wget on that URL, what happens/doesn't happen? If you open the page with a GUI web browser, right-click on the page and select 'View Page Source', what does it display? It is possible that the page is composed by a java applet, which I don't think wget will handle; only something capable of hosting a Java Runtime Environment would be able to handle that.

too bad

curl even I guess.

Code:

wget -r -l1 "http://.../page2"

does not work either
