I need to quote a job, but i don't know how to extract the copy of the website my client wants to translate. Any ideas?

asking the source files to your client Sep 12, 2012

The easiest way is to ask directly to your client if she has the source files...

You can also use a Website copier such as Httrack but if you do, be carreful not to quote too many things (it can download stuff that the site links to but which is not necessarily relevant)
