I'm trying to save the html source of a fetched web page into a file and I want to do this using only the CMD prompt on Windows. I could do this with wget, but that requires using the wget program. Is there any easy way to do this?

@if (@CodeSection == @Batch) @then @echo off CScript //nologo //E:JScript "%~F0" "%~1" > "%~N1.html" goto :EOF @end var http = WScript.CreateObject('Msxml2.XMLHTTP.6.0'); http.open("GET", WScript.Arguments.Item(0), false); http.send(); if (http.status == 200) < WScript.StdOut.Write(http.responseText); >else
Save previous code in a .BAT file, for example: GetHtmlCode.bat, and execute it with the web address in the first parameter:
GetHtmlCode.bat "https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24975698/get-code-html-to-a-file-whit-cmd" I borrowed previous code from the accepted answer of this question and just did a couple small changes.
