If I understand correctly how a forum is mirrored, HTTrack opens the link on
each page and then makes a mirror image of that HTML page as it is presented.
It then saves it and converts the link to the saved page.

If I am understanding this correctly, can someone explain how it numbers each
page?
I have mirrored a discussion forum successfully but the page links at the top
don't work, they use Javascript with option input and HTTrack doesn't parse
this.

If I can figure out how HTTrack numbers its pages, I can attempt to build my
own index.htm page and build a link system

Are there other ways to show pages of a forum when the Java input is in ranges
instead of a direct link?
thanks
