Internet Explorer 5 and above offers a number of ways to save sites, for purists who want all the HTML and code, and a Web Archive feature which will save a site and all its links to whatever link depth you specify. It will also preserve framesets, I believe. One of the drawbacks of the Acrobat method is that the PDF archive, altho stable, won't preserve framesets, or at least not in the last version I had.

archiving websites for later analysis
by Frank Schaap 26 Sep '02

I know this has been discussed here before, but I can't seem to find that discussion anymore. I'm analysing a relatively limited number of homepages and I'm looking for a way to archive them to be able to later go back to the state I found them in for analysis purposes. Using the "save as" function of for instance IE isn't sufficient. Since personal homepages aren't all that big usually, I want to archive the whole site including underlying pages. I have found WebCopier <http://www.maximumsoft.com/> and that seems to work quite okay, but it still has some issues, for instance with iframes. It also converts the directory structure of the site and sometimes it's important to see how someone structures their site. So, in other words, does anyone have any other recommendations? Dept. and IT policies make that I'm looking for something that I can run locally on my own machine...

26 Sep '02

*****CALL FOR PAPERS***** 8. European Congress of Psychology - "Networking" 6. - 11. July 2003 Vienna, Austria organised by the Austrian Professional Association of Psychologists (BÖP) under the auspices of the European Federation of Psychologists' Associations (EFPA) The conference is designed to constitute an international review of how psychology acts in dialogue with related disciplines. The Congress will provide a unique opportunity to bring together experts in the field of psychology and related fields to exchange ideas, information and the latest research findings. Keynote speakers will introduce a selection of important topics followed by symposia, parallel sessions and posters. I also want to highlight the teaching seminars "Tools for Practitioners", which will offer an excellent opportunity to increase the level of familiarity with different areas of psychology. The Call for Papers posted in this list is to encourage submissions of abstracts especially to the topic Media/New Media. Other topics are Organisational Psychology, Disaster Psychology, Health Psychology/Wellness, Life Span, Clinical Psychology, Psychotherapy and Political Psychology. The official language of the Conference is English. Presentations in the German language are possible but should not exceed one third of the programme. There will be no simultaneous translations. Deadline for submitting abstracts is 1 November 2002, abstracts may be submitted only online. For further information and submission details visit the congress website: www.psycongress.at Contact: info(a)psycongress.at Gerald Kral on behalf of the Organising Committee *We apologize for crossposting*

Hi Frank Have you thought about using the Internet Archive? (See http://www.archive.org/.) This claims to be "building a digital library of Internet sites and other cultural artifacts in digital form. Like a paper library, we provide free access to researchers, historians, scholars, and the general public". By inserting a particular url, you can see how the site looked at particular dates, from about 1996, although these dates are set by the archive. I'm not sure if this will provide the level of depth into a website that you are looking for, but perhaps there may be more flexiblity if you register. I've also recently been recommended to try Net snippets (http://www.4dev.com/ns/) "Net Snippets provides users for the first time with tools to clip, annotate, edit and manage information found on the web". May be useful depending on how extensive the sites you're looking at are.
