Saving web pages

[strest]

I tried saving a web page to my hard drive (click on "file", then "save
as").

When I went back to open the file, I expected the saved web page to open.
But instead, it was broken into several different files -- just a big mess.

What am I doing wrong? Can someone direct me on how to open the file?

Thanks in advance.

If you are using IE, you don't open the folder that is created, but rather
the .HTM file that is created. The folder is merely to hold all the other
components such as graphics, style sheets, etc. For example, when I save a
webpage to my desktop, two things appear on the desktop. The .HTM file, and
the folder which holds the page components. To see the page I saved, I click
on the .HTM file. It will be the file with the big blue "e" representing an
Internet Explorer-associated file.

The computer saves the files from the web page but it doesn't save the hole
page. I dont now (mayby you have some program) You can't save all web page.
You can only add your page to favourite pages (it is on the belt over the
page)
I'm sorry if I write something not wright. I'm from Poland and only learning
englich.

You need to learn more about the browser. IE can save the whole page
complete with most, if not all elements that comprise a given page. You
simply click "file", then "save as", and specify a folder, then the page is
saved. An HTM file is created, and a folder that holds the supplemental page
elements (pictures, etc) is created as well. The HTM file, and the related
folder are linked together. You doubleclick the HTM file, and the page opens
in the browser, typically complete with most or all elements intact, as they
were stored in the linked folder.
