Hello!

A client of mine wants me to translate his web page, but gave me only the URL of his web page. Is there a way to download his web page and load html into a CAT tool?

It would be extremly annoying to copy everything into word and then translate it...

Thank you for your answers.

Expression Web Oct 15, 2021

Microsoft Expression Web 4 (free – it's old software) has a wizard for importing an entire website.

However, it would not include anything that can only be reached through databases or dynamic links or anything fancy, so you'd need to check with the client that the list of files you download is the complete job.

HTTrack is a free (GPL, libre/free software) and easy-to-use offline browser utility.

It allows you to download a World Wide Web site from the Internet to a local directory, building recursively all directories, getting HTML, images, and other files from the server to your computer. HTTrack arranges the original site's relative link-structure. Simply open a page of the "mirrored" website in your browser, and you can browse the site from link to link, as if you were viewing it online. HTTrack can also update an existing mirrored site, and resume interrupted downloads. HTTrack is fully configurable, and has an integrated help system.

WinHTTrack is the Windows (from Windows 2000 to Windows 10 and above) release of HTTrack, and WebHTTrack the Linux/Unix/BSD release.

Many options, but be careful Oct 18, 2021

One issue with this method is that you can't tell which scripts are running on the server. And your client might not be aware of what their web designer did exactly. A red flag would be static data being displayed where you'd expect dynamic data, e.g. a contact or calendar page displaying the date y... See more

The Unix command-line tools wget and curl have been ported to Windows and macOS, so you could run two lines of code in PowerShell, which is already installed on Windows 10. ▲ Collapse
