Works fine for me. In fact, if the frames have frames, it'll get those
too. How many nested frames have you?

These two examples strongly suggest that you have a large (>2) number of
nested frames. wget will only recurse two levels of page-prerequisites
with the -p option.

However, if you can't be specific about the URL you're trying, we can't
be specific about what's going on.

I'd recommend you use the -d (debug) option, redirect the log to a file
(-o wget-log), and check the log for a string like: "Not descending
further" (if you're running it in an English locale), which is a good
way to tell if it's run into more nested frames than it is willing to
pursue.

Me too. :)
