Re: [PHP] Running AMP from CD
You'll need to trick wget into downloading all the .php? content, even if it is a link embedded in the JS. How hard this is or isn't is more than I can tell you, as I also only understand about half the switches of wget, and have been known to wrap my own PHP program around wget to do what is probably a one-liner for a wget expert. But so be it. Don't really care how long it takes when I'm just dumping something out overnight while I sleep. :-) On Mon, November 27, 2006 1:37 pm, Ryan A wrote: Hey Rich, To be honest I thought of using WGET and if I remember correctly it was suggested in the original old thread... but once i started reading up on wget, the damn thing has so many switches I got lost and gave up hope pretty soon. Another thing that I am not sure if WGET will handle soo well is... there are quite a few javascript popups on each page (basically icons on the side, when clicked open a JS popup with the content of the main page in a different language for example: the main page is in Swedish, when you click the language icon on the side it opens a popup with the same content in Arabic or Spanish) but these popups are calling php scripts with something like this: get_popup_content.php?content_id=2354 But if you think this is the best solution, I am willing to start reading up on WGET again to see if this time I get the hang of it..

Re: [PHP] Running AMP from CD
Hi Paul, Sounds good but I dont think its right for this project because we are making educational pages that are presently online... but will later be distributed for free to students, mostly young ones at that... 10-15yrs old so it has to be as simple as possible for example: User gets the cd and loads it into their comp Then either of these two: a) they click on clickme.html or clickme.exe etc or b)the CD autostarts and opens the browser window with the index of the site Thanks!

Re: [PHP] Running AMP from CD
Hey Paul, Now this is sounding promising! Can you send me details on how/where I can download your package to give it a go? Firefox launches on CD start and I hope just in this case FF is launched, because we have found that most of our to be users are on IE... so this was designed mostly for IE and some of the JS scripts look a bit funny in FF.. if you are releasing the courses as free, I would really like to add it in there I dont see any problem with that, but I dont know how much use it would be for people outside of Sweden as the entire site is mostly Swedish... you can check it out here: http://matematik.sofiadistans.nu/index.htm (Its still very much under construction) Cheers!
