Hrvoje, Jan,
Yes, that's correct. I just tried and got the same result. my original message was incorrect in that if I use either. wget -r -l2 -A=htm,html,phtml http://www.tunedport.com wget -r -l2 -Ahtm,html,phtml http://www.tunedport.com I get an empty folder. Now, I'm on MacIntosh OSX which is based upon BSD Unix I believe, if that helps any. I'm just typing this into my terminal.app wget -r -l2 -Rhtm,html,phtml http://www.tunedport.com I get everything with the html, htm, & phtml too. Unless I use only one kind of file like -Ahtml To use the list for either the -R or -A just seems to nullify the controls. Although this did not work, I appreciate the help so much, I'm still trying to get it done here and screwed around all night with it. I've been trying a couple of workarounds like using the -Ahtml then -Ahtml then -Aphtml in succession, but that is just a desperate time consuming repeat loop. At least I had it doing what I wanted but it took forever. Probably be faster to just get it all and trash the stuff I don't want.....
