Hosted HTML Directory into an App?

Is it possible? I have had a web directory and I hosted it in a web host already. I want to transform it into a native application through BuzzTouch. Can it be done? How? Please help me. Thanks!

Did you use mobile CSS in your hosted page? I'm guessing you have a database and stuff? You can just use the "custom URL" plugin, to display a web page live within your app. Mick

I didnt't use mobile CSS. I developed the pages with authoring tools, so they use their own ways to apply CSS or to layout the interface. I don't want it to be "live". I need this software to get the html directory and create a permanent app, so you can access offline.

Well of course it can be done. You'll basically move all of your HTML into your BT_Docs directory, and make the appropriate link alterations. However, more than one developer has been disappointed by Apple's reviewers rejecting their app because it is nothing more than a stand alone 'web app'. Cheers! -- Smug

If you have the html, you can build a "custom html" plugin page that is available offline (cached). Sorry for the confusion, I imagined you had a directory using php and SQL, not a static html table.
