CMS written in Java or PHP that allow export as static HTML pages

I am looking for a CMS that allows me to export the site as static HTML (i.e. the site must be able to work without the CMS itself). I want to be able to create the site on my PC and then upload the exported static HTML to a hosting server.

I must mention that I do not want to use site downloaders to "pull out" the content from a CMS, I want an option in the CMS itself, something like "Export as static content", "Export as HTML" etc.

So far I found Alfresco for Java and Typo3 for PHP but there are so many of CMS tools ou开发者_C百科t there... :(

Can someone share from his experience and point to a good CMS which generates static HTML?

Thank you all!

Check out Wordpress, I think it had an export option that was quite good. Or possibly good ole Google docs?

WebJaxe does that. Actually, it's not even an export: websites created with WebJaxe are always static.

Don't look to recreate the wheel inside a CMS. Choose a CMS because it solves business problems you're facing. To generate a static copy of a site use wget.

So long as you're not doing dynamic JavaScript library loading or css @import declarations, wget is going to grab everything you need and set it up in the correct relatively pathed directory structure so you can stand it up statically somewhere else. Just understand things that are dynamic, like search, will not work no matter what solution you choose.

What you are looking for is a static website generator like PieCrust. There is also a bunch of alternatives listed here.
