Hi!

I had mentioned earlier that I was using wget to fetch a Web page with
a graphic plot of stock index prices.  The HTML was being properly fetched,
but when the stored information was opened with my browser, I would get
the CURRENT price plot, not the price plot fetched, say, a day or two ago.

Someone kindly suggested the -k switch.  Here's what I've done:

wget -nH -p -k -E -O OEX 
'http://bigcharts.marketwatch.com/quickchart/quickchart.asp?symb=%24oex&sid=0&o_symb=%24oex&x=33&y=24'
and what I get is:

--20:09:32--  
http://bigcharts.marketwatch.com/quickchart/quickchart.asp?symb=$oex&sid=0&o_symb=$oex&x=33&y=24
           => `OEX'

My initial questions are:

Why is the .html appended to the second URL?  How do I suppress that?

What else am I doing wrong?

Thank you,
