Courtesy of the wget manual page (first result of a web search on "wget options", btw):

wget -E http://whatever.url.example.com/x/y/z/foo.aspx

If you also wish to download all related media (CSS, images, etc.), use -p, possibly with --convert-links (rewrites the page for offline viewing):

wget -Ep --convert-links http://whatever.url.example.com/x/y/z/foo.aspx

I want to download the web page http://www.codeproject.com/KB/tips/ModelViewController.aspx using wget, so I simply used the really basic command:

wget http://www.codeproject.com/KB/tips/ModelViewController.aspx

What I received was a file with the .aspx extension, which could not be displayed correctly in a regular browser.

How can I download that web page?

That is incorrect, wget can do that quite easily (-p --convert-links, this functionality has been there for years). Note also that wget can do the renaming for you (-E). See the manual: gnu.org/software/wget/manual/wget.html#Advanced-Usage

i tried your answer,it seems that wget just downloads the page and appends the suffix in html,still could not display the downloaded "html" page correctly,although better than doing nothing,specifically,code highlighting and several pictures are lost.

@Haz, i did that renaming thing,but like i said in the comment on @Piskvor 's answer,code highlighting and several pictures are lost,and the terrible font.

@Piskvor，by using the option -p and --convert-links(equivalent to -k),all i get is a folder containing files related to the page downloaded,however,there is still an aspx extension file which has the same problem,i could not find an nice normal html page after digging down the folder.

@Tracy: Well, have you tried, y'know, combining the switches? -E -p --convert-links (and btw, there's more good stuff in that manual)

@Tracy: You didn't mention that you also wanted to download the associated images and other data.
