- --page-requisites invokes a special kind of recursion (and the manpage says this), so the manpage is pretty clear about what's required (i.e., yes, you need --span-hosts, just as you would for -r). The manual makes this even more clear in the following text: > Actually, to > download a single page and all its requisites (even if they exist > on separate websites), and make sure the lot displays properly > locally, this author likes to use a few options in addition to -p: > > wget -E -H -k -K -p http://<site>/<document> (Note, btw, that the authoritative source for information about Wget is the info manual, not the man page.) - -- Micah J.
