I only get the first page,not even that,just the loading now button.It is a flash site done with Sitecube.com online.Can anyone help with this. I have posted this in other forums,to no avail.Just need to download site in its entirety and burn to cd for demos.I know this can be done,but can't quite figure it out.You guys can.
Thanks.

Confused...

copy your own site? If it is your site, you should be able to FTP to the server, download the files, then burn.

If you are viewing someone else's site and you want to save it, that is tougher. Especially if any of it is database driven. If it's just a flash movie, you can download the movie file direct and save it. Look at the html code and fine the full file name and path, then put that into your browser. When the movie comes up, click File - Save, then save it. That should work.

*if* the site is yours you should just be able to FTP into it, like Cheetah8799 mentioned and download the files you need, preserving the file path (hopefully you used relative addressing for stuff) If the site isn't yours you should obtain permission from whoever owns the content before you go off copying it and using it in demos.

Yea, they are making it deliberately difficult, who knows why.

index.html loads sitebottom.html and sitetop.html. sitetop.html loads site.js which loads site.swf. site.swf shows only the loading bar, then loads siteinitial.swf which renders the menus but no pictures, etc...

Your webhost sucks, I hope it was free.

Here's the url of the swf for the preview version: http://www.sitecube.com/builder/users/shenders/1000174/preview/site.swf Not all that hard to find.

Just load that in your browser and do a File -> Save As type deal, or whatever other means you have (such as wget). That page certainly is ass from a geek perspective but it doesn't seem like that bad of an idea for people that want to build a site visually without installing any desktop software. The only thing I'd seriously criticize is the music; that's just plain silly and annoying.

I have found that if you do file save as.mht instead of html in the browser it works fine and can easily burn to cd.Thanks..........I will lose the music.
