perfect, I just checked and now the link text appears - as it should be.

Unfortunately the test did not start correctly the 1st time, since I still had in the preferences the values "max recursions=1, link levels=1" I used yesterday for testing ... the result was an lrf file more than 6MB big!

Speaking about it - you said:

I'm still not so sure I understand it - so let's try a typical test case: if I wanted to get an HTML page, plus all the others just 1 link away and no more, which values should I set?

Last point: one option I always find useful in webscrapers programs is the possibility to ask them to follow just links local to the starting website. This is still not possible in web2lrf, correct?


Thanks for the help
