Maybe there is a misunderstanding (not sure tbh)
So just some background:
Remote access (through HTTP/HTTPS) is the same, no matter if a page uses
absolute or relative links.
But local access (e.g. after downloading a website with wget -r/-m) differs.
Relative links access files stored locally, absolute links will access the
remote content via HTTP/HTTPS.
If you want to prevent the latter (remote access), use `--convert-links` when
downloading a web site with `-r` or `-m`. In this case, every link in HTML
pages will be converted into a relative one. Except the link could not be
downloaded - in that case it will be converted into an absolute link.
