title: How to copy a website from a remote server to local host
body: <p>I have a website that is running on a server. I want to get it down to my local machine so i can edit it without it being like, this means i'll have to copy the database as well as all the images and HTML, JavaScript, PHP and so on.</p>
  
  <p>My server is running ubuntu server and i am also running ubuntu LAMP on my local machine. </p>
  
  <p>Now i understand that getting all the webpages and images down is simple, just a matter of pulling them down using filezila, but what about the databases? </p>
  
  <p>I know that because its linux everything is stored as a file so would it be a case of be finding the file and copying them to the local machine? If so where would one usually find these files?</p>
  
  <p>thanks a lot for the help, any ideas and tips are more then welcome.</p>
