Question

Hi I am using wget to copy a data from url and store it in a file.The url gives me a aspx file .I need to convert the aspx file to html file.SO I renamed the file from asd.aspx to asd.html.But in my file there are relative url which are not working in my html file.They should point to original url.How can i convert the relative url to their absolute url.Is there any way to achieve this,

for example

in original file link is 

href='../../login.html'

but when i open the html file in my browser the link is changed to

href="localhost/login.html"

but it should be

href="abc.com/login.html"

I hope i have clear the prob

Answer 1

You should add <base href="http://www.abc.com/original/path"> in the head section of the html file, wget will not rewrite the links automatically.
