The aforementioned MIT Press website book was very well constructed and "behaved nicely" when being spidered so I didn't have much to worry about when using HTTrack.

Yes, IIRC, HTTrack was a bit easier, wget had more flexibility for some tricky situations I encountered.
BTW, if you've converted from spidered html sites, can you give me a summary of what Calibre does with the spidered site when you drag in the index.html? Does it track down locally stored links or relative links or do you need to tweak things? Any info or advice you want to share about the process (tips/tricks) would be appreciated. I've never needed to manually construct a content.opf file.
