Help understanding wget httrack and PHP

Hi there,

So I'm trying to learn this a bit better. I know that wget can pull a static copy of a php driven website. I haven't played with httrack too much. I'm wondering if it also will pull a static copy, or if it can pull an exact copy of the dynamic site? PHP driven sites, like Wordpress or Joomla or what have you.

If not, are there other command line tools I am not aware of that could get the job done?

Thanks.

Nope HTTrack also pulls a static copy. It is NOT possible to pull the PHP codes.

The closing tag of a block of PHP code also automatically.
