If you want to send someone a copy of a web page, follow these steps:
In the browser choose FILE > SAVE AS... to save the page to the computer you're using. Choose your format and the directory where you want to put the file and click "Save".
In Internet Explorer (IE) 6.x, Netscape 7.x and Firefox 1.x:
Default Format = "Web Page, complete" which will save the page and all the associated images in a separate folder;
Other Format = "Web Page, html only" which will save the page, but not the images;
Other Format = "Text Only" which will save text only and no formatting at all.
IE only:
Other Format = "Web Archive, single file (*.mht)" which will save the page into a single MIME-encoded file (hence, .mht or MHTML page); proprietary file format; not necessarily readable by all users;
For Adobe .pdf files
Use the save option on the Adobe toolbar.
Once a file is saved, open your e-mail program and attach it to the message.
Good Form = including the address of the real version of the saved page so that the user can visit the web site if s/he would like.
