Thanks... Hmmm interesting, that works. They are doing a more sophisticated archving, that is good. So as long as the Web Wayback machine stays online, it will be available that way. They have captures up into 2022. An extra click for every navigation but other than that, probably everything is there from some year or another. thanks, John On 8/20/22 14:18, Lawrence Winiarski wrote:
Click the "X" on the archive.org title bar to remove it, and the MSOG title bar will appear under it. I can see the MSOG main menu and move around the site. Can you?

Yeah, same problem as with using the tools I mentioned, which they likely also se to capture a site.
The main menu is missing...there's a text placeholder there. So most of the site content is not accessible, with no main menu.
cheers, John

Do you see problems with this John? Do they appear to have everything?
At the risk of being annoying, I'd say you could just point the msog.org domain right at the archive.org site and it would more or less work for the forseeable future. Just need to keep "x"ing out the title bar
Not sure the implications of this, but it looks like a quick and dirty fix till something better comes along.

Hi all,
I have a pretty serious tech/geek background, and I am not finding any way to do a static capture of a CFM-based website from the 'outside' - that is, from the site visitor side of the site. The classic tools like wget and httrack don't work, I'll skip the geeky explanation why not. There may be something more complicated that will work but at this point I don't have time to find out.
Unless Doug can, on the back end of the website, export or otherwise transfer the msog.org website to a static HTML site or some other format than the CFM (ColdFusion, .cfm) dynamic site platform it's built on, you'll need to personally save on your own device any pages with info you want to keep.
You can do this in any browser, but it's tedious. Some of the content is probably worth it, grab what you want, leave the rest...!
cheers, John
