saving internet sites to My Documents

[Guest]

I use AOL mainly. I'm learning PSP and have saved a ton of sites and
tutorial sites. Is there a way to get them into files on My Documents to
make them easy to access. The My Favorites on AOL isn't that user friendly
and time consuming to read through all of them. Being able to put them into
files would be great. I'm a novice user so don't make the answer too
technical. When I brought up a tut site and saved it into my documents, it
only saved the downloaded pictures, not the site name or tutorial
information. With all that computers do, someone else must have wanted to do
this and found a way to save internet files in an easy to access way. Thanks

Try File -> Save as -> then under "Save as type:" choose "Web archive single
file". That saves the current page as a single file.

You could also try Favorites -> Add to Favorites with the "make available
offline" option set. If you want to make an entire site available offline
you need to select the customise button and tell it how many links deep you
want to go. Just be carefull as you can end up downloading a huge amount of
data. Try setting it to say 2 first. Never set it to more than say 4 or 5
unless you know what you are doing!

There are also some programs available to copy a web site to your HD. I'll
try and look one up for you.
