How can I put a website on the PRS500?
Hi there ,
I want to take a website to browse it offline with the PRS500 (Going to vacation and would like to spend the time reading the articles there).
The site has lots of Poker Articles :

(No need for
I tried to grab it offline with web copier and using book designer to convert it to ebook , but didn't succeed.

Can anyone recommend me a way how to do it ?

Thanx.

There is a copyright notice. You will have to communicate with the site owners first to get permission. It is theirs to decide.

I didn't ask about the copyright , I asked about how I can put it on the PRS500 .

I've already been told that as long as its for personal use , I can print or copy it for myself , as long as I don't publish it anywhere... and If I want to publish or quote it , I should add reference to the website itself.

And now to my original question , How can I put it on the PRS... Its a php file.

Thx.

If you have web creating software on your computer it will be available in Internet Explorer under File/Modify with... Once you have opened the site with that software, you will be able to save it as HTML on your computer. That is the format Book Designer needs to make its conversion. If your web software is adequate I don't know.

librie toolbar
I personally found the librie toolbar quite useful for occasional single webpage to lrf.
Available from http://groups.yahoo.com/group/librie...entGeneration/
Tutorial at http://www.xtmotion.com/librie/

I've posted my short reviews of various tools on my blog at
http://hnsws.blogspot.com/2007/01/tr...into-sony.html

Please note that this was before kovidgoyal tweaked his libprs500 and made it much nicer with a gui and all... I've not tried his latest version...
