How can I instruct WGET to retrieve and webpages of links on a webpage
link I specify? For eg., if http://www.somesite.com/somepage.html has
several links to other pages, mentioned in the text, how can I get it
to get those webpages of the links as well?

Another example would be,
http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/authoring/xml/index.html has
several links, such as "Sharing Your Site with RSS"
(http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/03/17/index3a.html?tw=authoring),
"Getting Your Feet Wet With SOAP"
(http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/02/08/index0a.html?tw=authoring)
and so on. And I wish for WGET to retrieve those webpages as well.

I know this is copyrighted material, but please rest assured, I have
no plans whatsoever to use this for any other purposes or reasons
other than self education. I read that this site will be closed down
soon by its parent company and wish to save some of the pages for my
own use only.

I'd really appreciate it someone can provide me with the correct
syntax or flags so I can get WGET to perform what I explained above.
Or is this even possible with WGET? Thanks for your time and
courtesy.
