Hi,

The following seems to not be expected behavior:

wget --page-requisites --no-clobber --no-directories --no-host- directories --convert-links http://www.candidagenome.org/cgi-bin/ locus.pl?locus=HWP1

Two of the images on that page do not get downloaded, and then the links within the page get converted to local viewing of them. The html that includes the images is actually somewhat tricky, e.g.:

<img width="127" alt="ORFmap" border="1" src="http:// www.candidagenome.org/cgi-bin/gbrowse_img/candida? abs=1;options=Everything;width=127;name=Contig19-10109:42251..48155" />

i.e. the image is generated on the fly from a script, which then essentially prints the image back to the browser with the correct mime type. While this is a non-standard way to include an image on a page, the --page-requisites are not fulfilled when retrieving this web page.
