How can I copy a site to another disk or to CD

From version 1.1 and later WebStripper creates copies of sites which only use relative file links. This means you can copy the site to another disk, or burn it onto a CD and it will still be browseable. If hte site was stripped with an earlier version just right click and select Re-Parse. This will change all the links to relative links.

To copy a site to another hard disk (or to another part of the same disk) use Windows Explorer to drag and drop the appropriate folder (usually below C:\Stripped).

To copy a site to a CD you need to use you CD burning software. The exact method depends on your software but in general this means telling the software which source folder you want to copy to the CD. The source folder is the folder containing the stripped copy (usually under C:\Stripped).
