anyone recommend a good site-ripper? - one that will show me all directories/contents of a server?

I could be wrong but most if not all site-rippers are not able to pull server side scripts, so any php or scripting that occurs to render the page is inaccessible to site rippers

You dump the website to your hard disk (using wget with a switch), then sed, awk or homegrown script your way to provide a nice clean text file with a detailed directory map of the website. If that's what you're after. But you've essentially cloned the website to your machine, and as such can extract whatever data you want...
