Wget issue
Hello there, I'm trying to download a dynamically generated page with Wget, but it downloads the wrong contents. The page link is below(it's a sitemap). I need this to work to set a Cron job that downloads it automatically every hour.

i don't know what you mean by wrong contents. show your wget command...


anyway, if you have Python, here's an alternative solution
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import urllib2
url = "http://www.noticie.com.br/index.php?option=com_sefservicemap&task=xmlmap&no_html=1&lang=pt-BR"
page=urllib2.urlopen(url)
result=page.read()
open("outfile.html","w").write(result)
