Question
I'm having a site done in wordpress with some 10 pages. I'll need to save it, the whole site with the links working for offline use every time i update the content. Now what am doing is save each page then link everything etc.. but i want to do this programing.. so i dont have to do manually or are there any tools or class already?
UPDATE: I'm downloading for creating a offline documentation kind of stuff, which will be distributed on CD's so links should be relative.
Solution
Use wget, check the -k option
-k, --convert-links make links in downloaded HTML point to local files.

OTHER TIPS
If you set the links to a relative path (eg href="/foo/bar.html"
), this can be accomplished.
Otherwise, I suggest setting up Apache or IIS on your local machine to be your test environment, and upload it to the web server when your code is ready for production.
