looking for a method to archive a specific webpage, the problem is how to search for images on a page and write them to seperate files in a directory or better yet mysql. i'd like to do this with php if possible. the pages would then be archived, so after the live page is dumped i will still have an archived copy with text and images, etc. i suspect to show the archived page i will have to rewrite it with local iamges now on my hard drive.

thank you.

 
I did, but i don't think i was specific enough and no one replied with any information to aid my developer. I also want to make it clear the intent of the project is not rip off any one's data. It's simply for archiving purposes. I've been told the the curl function may help. My developer has no problem capturing everyting but the images and writing to mysql. the issue is how to handle the images which must be downloaded and then obviously, the page will have to be rewritten so the page looks for image links locally on my server and not on the web.
 
No one replied with any information because you quit responding to your own thread.

Also, why isn't your developer posting his questions?
