Re: [Bug-wget] no data downloaded

Hi Jos,

please always answer to the mailing list - just in case someone else is
thinking about the issue or has a similar issue.


You can also use Firefox's built-in developer tools to see what is going
on. I seldom use it, so I can't give you detailed instructions. Just
search the web for it.

With Best Regards, Tim
