building the offline-page (zip, epub, ...) on the fly could take a lot 
of resources (depending on website).

but on the fly would be neccessary only on often changes. maybe the 
generation of the offline-page could be triggered manualy after a seldom 
change or be done with a cron-job.

maybe you can install a webspider on the server and build a shell-script 
to spider and do further work with it (check for changes, spider 
website, generate epub, replace old version, ...)
and inside TYPO3 you link to the (replaced) file.

one further thought: you might enable building inidviualized epubs.
the visitor enters data in a form which decides the content of epub 
(selective catalog, inidvidualized book (exchange name of person), ...)
then you need to do it on the fly. As most programms to generate the 
offline-page propably are CLI you need to call the script like above and 
generate individual files and link to this individual file (or mail it?)
this might be a nice extension I possibly can use for one project in mind.
