Downloading a web page and all of its resource fil

Question

I want to be able to download a page and all of its associated resources (images, style sheets, script files, etc) using Python. I am (somewhat) familiar with urllib2 and know how to download individual urls, but before I go and start hacking at BeautifulSoup + urllib2 I wanted to be sure that there wasn't already a Python equivalent to "wget --page-requisites http://www.google.com".

Specifically I am interested in gathering statistical information about how long it takes to download an entire web page, including all resources.

Thanks Mark

Answer 1

websucker.py doesn't import css links. HTTrack.com is not python, it's C/C++, but it's a good, maintained, utility for downloading a website for offline browsing.
