[Question] Is there any way to make an ofline Wikipedia?

Postby xpon » January 20th, 2012, 8:55 am

like the title say.....

i am a newbie in web / programing.

since long i always wonder if there is a way to make an offline program that can work like wikipedia. (when you click certain link.. it will direct you into the specific pages for more info)

and is there any easy way to create it?

thanks for your opinion and answer.

if you want something very basic, you could just make an html file on your computer and have the links lead to local pages and run it through your browser.

It would be time-consuming if you don't know much about web page design, not to mention it would take up a lot of hard drive space, but it can be done. ^^;

I really doubt it. The only issue would be copypasting everything to your machine :P
