Hi
I'm not quite sure how to save a page to a floppy disc for viewing on
another computer.
I have tried saving as web page complete (i get files and a folder ...why is
this?) and also as web archive but whenever i try to transfer the page to
another computer it always seems to have a part of the page missing ..ie some
of the pictures or charts(i like to save stocks and shares )
I realise that when i save pages for offline viewing that the page is
preserved in it's entirity so why can't i preserve the page in it's entirity
for viewing on another puter??

When you save as a complete web page, the folder holds all the files that
the independent page needs when you open it. If you're going to use it on
another computer it's best to save the page to your desktop as the HTML page
has references to the files on C:\Windows\Desktop\folder-name\file-name
If you save it somewhere else the other computer may not have the same
folder or path.

Just drag the page and the folder onto your floppy drive. In the other
computer you should be able to double-click open the A> drive and drag the
files onto the desktop and have it work okay... as long as Windows doesn't
have a different name on that machine than the first computer.
