So I did a search and found this:

http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=26249&forum=35#post357993

But it doesn't really explain much and doesn't do what I want.

I want to copy a webpage such as this one:

http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinations/europe/london/printable.htm

but see near the top where it says "Maps"? If I save this document in IE it doesn't save that stuff, it only saves the images on that page. I want the map to be d/l as well and I want it linked from this page (so its linked to a local copy)

Yes, I know I can do this manually but its a pain in the ass and would take forever for the 15-20 pages I want to do it for.

Anyone with an idea? Thanks...

Well, hmm create a simple links page with all those sites and then use
webstripper on it (webstripper.net) to download all htmls and graphics?
And then save the entire structure to your p800 after the program has parsed it so all the links are local.

If you have adobe acrobat that can do something similar aswell, allthough not the smallest way to do it.

Id be very interested if there was a good tool to get this sort of thing done properly and easily.

I was trying a program called Offline Commander but it wasn't working that great. I'll give Webstripper a try. Thanks.

Buy repligo!
Tha´s a great application for this kind of job. You get a button in your IE window, just press it and the page is being saved and converted to a smaller format. The program on the phone is a great document viewer and you can use any kind of document on it! It installs a "software" printer on your computer. So any program that can print, can be used!

Best Regards
