Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Anybody know how to save a web page to be looked at later? Basically, I've handed over the reins for my summer program, and I want to preserve a copy of the web page I designed before the new person changes it/I lose access to it.

I'm using Contribute, and there doesn't seem to be a way of saving it through that (or maybe there is and I don't know?). Thoughts?

I use Firefox's File->Save Page As...

Seems to work very well. I've used it to fake websites to great effect on April Fool's day.

I did that, but it just created a file in my pictures folder that included all of the pics from the page, but no text or layout.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

a file in my pictures folder that included all of the pics from the page, but no text or layout.

No HTML file?

Vortex,

I'm not sure what you want to save, but my favorite is the Scrapbook extension on Firefox. It is the bomb diggity.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Vortex, make sure the page didn't save somewhere else, separate from the pictures.

Yeah, that's weird. I've never had Firefox not save the html.

oh, wait, I found an HTML file. but when I try to open it in Explorer, the pics don't come along. It seems to work okay in Firefox, though.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Um, is there a good way to open up a subwoofer if, say, a 2 year-old put some plastic Easter eggs inside and wants them back? You know, hypothetically speaking...
