Hi, I have a radiant site that I need to convert to HTML. I remember I
did a couple of years ago with an extension (but I can't find it now).

The extension "browse" trough all the pages and save then in html. So
after the process I end up with a directory that contains all the
pages, the css, js and images.

So I take the hole package and send to a server (to serve just the
html, no database or rails needed).

There's any extension that can do it nowadays?

Thanks a lot for your time!

When I need to do this I don't use a radiant extension, I use Wget or cURL

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wget
> Wget can optionally work like a web crawler by extracting resources linked from HTML pages and downloading them in sequence, repeating the process recursively until all the pages have been downloaded or a maximum recursion depth specified by the user has been reached. The downloaded pages are saved in a directory structure resembling that on the remote server. This "recursive download" enables partial or complete mirroring of web sites via HTTP. Links in downloaded HTML pages can be adjusted to point to locally downloaded material for offline viewing.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CURL
http://curl.haxx.se/

or http://curl.haxx.se/docs/comparison-table.html

My personal preference is for Wget.
