I have been thinking of doing such thing for a while and have two possible solutions. One is to have a master object and have a variable to set the mode of operation (i.e. Dynamic, Static) You would then abstract all your output (echo etc.) functions. This new echo function would either output in the normal way or to a file handler depending on the $static_dynamic variable. You would then have a master function which crawls your site calling all the pages. The other solution involved using a function which captures all browser i/o into a variable rather than sending it to the screen (cant remember its name). Not as sure how to implement this. Basically if you have not written your CMS using objects it will be a lot harder. One of the reasons I am not generating static snapshots it the CMS I wrote was not originally written without objects. I am slowly rewriting it and when finished I will revisit this issue.
