Escaping from Google Sites

A site can be downloaded using the open-source tool available at the Google Sites Liberation Project Page.  Note that this tool requires Java 1.5 or later.  Once the tool has been downloaded, double-click on the JAR file to launch the application.  You will be presented with the following screen.


Enter the required information and click "Export" to download your site as XHTML.  The downloaded site will not be styled and will not include the chrome and is completely unstyled, but will contain all of the content included in the site.

Escaping to Google Sites

To upload a site, use the same tool as above, but point the target directory to one with content in it.  Clicking the "Import" button will upload all of the data in that directory to Sites.
