[Air-l] archiving websites for later analysis in Netscape

You can save each URL of the page rather simply and quickly.  Then you can
view the page off your hard drive (links will still be active of course) just
as you would if you were accessing the page from the host.  That way, if an
owner changes hers/his site, you still have the old information, too.  To
retrieve or view the code intact, go to "edit" html source.  I think that is
what you are asking?
