How to download multiple "hidden" files

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jul 05.2010

In this web site they post 4 daily links to downloadable pdf files:

[url]http://www.kipa.co.il/daf_yomi/[/url]
1. [url]http://www.kipa.co.il/daf_yomi/dafyomi_files/25034.pdf[/url]
2. [url]http://www.kipa.co.il/daf_yomi/dafyomi_files/25035.pdf[/url]
3. [url]http://www.kipa.co.il/daf_yomi/dafyomi_files/25036.pdf[/url]
4. [url]http://www.kipa.co.il/daf_yomi/dafyomi_files/25037.pdf[/url]

Which are accessible from the buttons :

“עמוד 1 עמוד 2 עמוד 3 עמוד 4 “
(That’s in Hebrew if you can’t read it… :-).

Acctually in the same folder of the web site there are all the pdf files which are accessible by typing directly the file name, such as:

[url]http://www.kipa.co.il/daf_yomi/dafyomi_files/25033.pdf[/url].

I need to download all the pdf files under this folder.

How do I do it automatically?

I tried using an offline site downloader program and it downloaded only the 4 “unhidden” daily files.

Thanks,

RS.

@CharlesJul 05.2010 — I would use, and do use for this sort of thing, PHP running locally and the CURL module.

@rsegauthorJul 05.2010 — Thanks.

Is there a piece of .exe that does this simple task without getting into programing?

@Declan1991Jul 06.2010 — The only thing that springs to mind for someone who can't program would be [url=https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3863/]this Firefox extension[/url]. Perhaps it will help, I don't know. I would use a similar solution to Charles.

Success!
