Question about HTML Book

xamiam · 09-05-2011, 09:16 PM

There is a book on a website, each chapter is connected with a "next ". No digital rights managment . Can I add this to my library? Can I convert it to MOBI?

Thank you,

You have to download all the files into a directory and create a table of contents HTML file with links to all the chapters in the proper order (if there isn't such a file already). Then let Calibre open this TOC file and it will add all the other files.

See http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/faq....specific-order

You can download a website using HTTrack. Just use its default settings...trying to download too many streams at once might cause the website to think it was being attacked. Also check other links on the page...be sure you set it not to follow all the links on the page or it could download everything on the entire site.
