    I am trying to save ABSOLUTELY everything on a web page. Meaning: HTML, CSS, scripts, everything. I've tried the firefox save page as and that gives the appearance of saving everything. it saves a .htm of the page but what is this .htm file? It seems to contain everything and work alone (e.g.: even when I move it) even though the HTML references external style sheets. but does it really save everything? I have no way of knowing ... when I open the file offline on my computer everything works. when i open the file offline on ANOTHER computer, everything works on the page but the images. weird. I just don't know what this file is.

    It saves the files which have immediate association with the main html page. however, some images when used as background and defined in a stylesheet will not appear after the file is saved through a browser.

    In Firefox try using the Scrapbook extension, it's really useful
