I am using the wget command below to get a page from the U.S. Patent
Office. This works fine. However, when I open the resulting local file with
Internet Explorer (IE), click a link in the file (go to another web site) and
the click Back, it goes back to the real web address (http:...) vice the local
file (c:\program files\wget\patents\ . . .).
Does this have something to do with how wget converts web links? Is
there something I should do differently with wget?
I`m not clear on why it would do this. When I save this site directly
from IE as an HTML file, it works fine. (When I click back, it goes back to
the local file.)
Thanks, Alan
