Subject: Trying to understand how httrack mirrors a site

I am having a really hard time doing something that, to me, should be quite
simple.

I am trying to mirror a site from the page given:

<http://opinions.aoc.arkansas.gov/weblink8/Browse.aspx?startid=101893>

The page given above shows a list of folders (30) and under the last folder,
numbers of pages for the complete list of folders (375) of which there are 13
pages worth (although only 12 show you have an > symbol that you click on to
go to the next page).

Within each folder there are a number of PDF files which range from anywhere
between 50 and 300. There are 30 files accessible per page so there are also
page numbers that one can click on under the last file shown.

My question is after httrack goes into the first folder, Vol 1, does httrack
download ALL the files in this folder or just on the first page and then exits
this folder and goes to the next folder etc, and then after going into all 375
folders to download all the files on the first level, goes back to Vol 1 and
goes to the 2nd page to download all THOSE files, and does the same for all
the other folders? In other words does httrack download all files by level, or
all files by folder? Not sure if I have made myself clear....
If httrack downloads all files by LEVEL is there any way of changing this
behavior so that all files are downloaded from each FOLDER before moving on to
the next one? This would make it easier for me to keep track of where the
download is at instead of trying to figure out at which LEVEL the download is
at. I ask because this download has failed to download all the files on
numerous occasions and even downloads files OUTSIDE of this directory which I
have set httrack NOT to do but it still does it anyway.
