[Bug-wget] request for help with wget (crawling search results of a website)

[Altug Tekin]

Dear mailing List members,

According to the website http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/ it is ok to
write emails with help requests to this mailing list. I have the following
problem:

I am trying to crawl the search results of a news website using *wget*.

The name of the website is *www.voanews.com <http://www.voanews.com>*.

After typing in my *search keyword* and clicking search on the website, it
proceeds to the results. Then i can specify a *"to" and a "from"-date* and
hit search again.

After this the URL becomes:

http://www.voanews.com/search/?st=article&k=mykeyword&df=10%2F01%2F2013&dt=09%2F20%2F2013&ob=dt#article

and the actual content of the results is what i want to download.

To achieve this I created the following wget-command:

wget --reject=js,txt,gif,jpeg,jpg \
     --accept=html \
     --user-agent=My-Browser \
     --recursive --level=2 \
     
www.voanews.com/search/?st=article&k=germany&df=08%2F21%2F2013&dt=09%2F20%2F2013&ob=dt#article

Unfortunately, the crawler doesn't download the search results. It only
gets into the upper link bar, which contains the "Home,USA,Africa,Asia,..."
links and saves the articles they link to.

*It seems like he crawler doesn't check the search result links at all*.

*What am I doing wrong and how can I modify the wget command to download
the results search list links (and of course the sites they link to) only ?*

Thank you for any help...
