Dear Wiki users, I need to provide the contents of a fast growing Wiki as offline version on a CD-ROM. Is there any tool available to copy all contents of a installed Mediawiki for orffline browsing ? Best regards, Daniel

You could also use a web spider (even something as simple as wget) to make a HTML mirror.

HTTrack might work for this - http://www.httrack.com/ One thing you'll want to consider is filtering. Specifically, do you really want *all* the data to be on the CD, or only content in a particular subset of the Namespaces? For example, do you want the User and User_Talk pages to be there, or not? Another thing you'll want to consider is whether you'll require users of the CD to be able to search through the content in the traditional sense. Presumably, if you spider all the data, you could just have them use Windows file search to look for info. If you require a more robust searching mechanism, you'll have to consider what software you'll put on the CD to handle this search. Just some things to consider when looking for a solution.
