How to get content of a webpage Curl vs Wget?
Hello,
What I am trying to do is to get html data of a website automatically.
Firstly I decided to do it manually and via terminal I entered below code:

Code:
$ wget http://www.***.*** -q -O code.html

Unfortunately code.html file was empty.

When I enter below code it gave Error 303-304

Code:
$ wget http://www.***.***

When I try below command, I see what I want to achieve but this is only streaming data on terminal window that can't be copied:

Code:
$ curl http://www.***.***

Could you please let me know is there a way to save the data with Curl and save it into a file ?

Thanks in advance
Boris

NAME

       Xymon web page headers, footers and forms.

DESCRIPTION

       The  Xymon  webpages  are  somewhat  customizable, by modifying the header- and footer-templates found in the ~xymon/server/web/ directory.
       There are usually two or more files for a webpage: A template_header file which is the header for this webpage, and a template_footer  file
       which is the footer.  Webpages where entry forms are used have a template_form file which is the data-entry form.

       With  the  exception of the bulletin files, the header files are inserted into the HTML code at the very beginning and the footer files are
       inserted at the bottom.

       The following templates are available:

       bulletin
	      A bulletin_header and bulletin_footer is not shipped with Xymon, but if they exist then the content of these files will be  inserted
	      in  all  HTML  documents generated by Xymon. The "bulletin_header" contents will appear after the normal header for the webpage, and
	      the "bulletin_footer" will appear just before the normal footer for the webpage. These files can be used to post important  informa-
	      tion about the Xymon system, e.g. to notify users of current operational or monitoring problems.
