'[OT] Save single WEB Page to Harddisk (?? WGET que'

I finally got WGET working (version 1.10.2 for windows) through the
proxy.

this works now on 'normal' web pages, but i cannot get it working on a
mapquest page. with a request like:

wget
"www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?latlongtype=decimal&latitude=47&lo
ngitude=7&zoom=6"

i do not get the full page saved.
looks like i get the frame with the advertising in the resulting html
file, but not the map.

any idea how to call or configure wget to get the map content?

thanx!
tino

Human meets AJAX. Score 0:1

Hi Martin,

I could save the image by right clicking on it from firefox. Then I
copied the address and I got the same image using wget. The command line
was:

wget -nd "http://mq-mapgend.websys.aol.com/?e=9&GetMapDirect=Gme5diw%2ca%3a9u12%3b%40%2450%2d72hw72%26y%40whfz2u%401%26l68sd4%24a%2161a10a%3adzbx%26u2gu%2c2%3a9672%3b%40b20w%24%3a%26%40%2450%2d72u672%26z%402u672u%40%24%3a9w72%210%2a%3agz7n%26%40"

bye,

Peter

hi peter
sure, this works on a manual basis, but how do you automate that?
i found no way to get the link to the map out of the original html file.
the only way was using 'properties' from within a browser window.
what i need to do is automatically download maps for offline usage.

Well, you see, the purpose of their doing it that way is so you don't
download maps autmatically. So what you really want to do is to reverse
engineer the JavaScript on that page and understand how it is done. If
they are any good about it, you will likely fail. Usually they are not
that good.
