Yes, I've realized it already

Sad :( That's what I was afraid of...

Well, then I have a question: maybe you have some ideas of how to organize 
recursive download: for example, if user started to download 
www.example.com/path/index.html, we should also accept 
www.example.com/path/logo.jpg and so on, but not www.example.com/index.php. If 
user started www.example.com/path/foo, we should accept 
www.example.com/path/foo/index.php but NOT www.example.com/path/bar.jpg.
Applications like Wget do support this behavior but the question is how they do 
it.
