it works for me (and for many others as well)
Added “download .zip” function
Thank you
It used to be “archive.is bot”.
Now it impersonates as a regular browser, because some popular sites (instagram to name one) try to detect if the page was requested by bot or human and in the former case can show the ugly version of page which is optimized for bots, not for people.
No, it is more a set of hacks than a project.
But you can find similar open source projects, for example https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile/
http://phantomjs.org/ with some patches.
1. In browser’s menu: File -> Save As -> Compele page.
Anyway, adding something like “download as .zip” can make sense, for example for mobile users which do not have full featured browsers. I will add it.
2. I think, no. It is very tricky to run, it depends on an exact version of Chrome, which binary also must be patched in order to reduce security (to allow saving content of frames, etc).
Thank you for reporting, the problem was on my side.
Should be fixed now.
To increase reliability and be more confident, you can put your link to all the archiving sites, not only to http://archive.is/ (there are also http://peeep.us/ http://webcitation.org/ http://hiyo.jp/ http://megalodon.jp/ ).
something like
curl —data url=http://url-to-submit.com/ http://archive.is/submit/
Please note, that it may take up to 1 hour to process 7000 urls (after you submit them and before they will be visible on the site).
