I'm not telling that this is a better solution, I'm just suggesting a 
tool that I've been using without any trouble on several occasion (never 
on a whole wiki though). On the other hand, I've tried dumpHTML only 
once but was not satisfied with the results.

Ken : for your skin problem, you probably should use the option "-k 
yourskinname" (e.g. $ php dumpHTML.php -k monobook)
