NCSA Mosaic for MS Windows User Guide: Tips and Tricks


Saving Files to Disk
You can save documents to your local disk. (See "Filenames" on page 6-2 for more information.) Among the reasons you might want to save files (either in HTML format or as text) are to:
- refer to the content of the file
- use the HTML as a template for your own file development
- view the document offline
Current File
To save the current file (i.e., the file displayed in your Document View window) to disk:
- Select Save As from the File menu
- With the right mouse button click on Save to Disk. Select the file format you want (HTML or text).
Hyperlinked File
To save a hyperlinked document to disk without opening it:
- Place your cursor on the hyperlink
- Click the left mouse button while holding down the SHIFT key
- Click on Save to Disk in the dialog box. Select the file format you want (HTML or text).
- Locate the appropriate directory and enter a filename. Click OK.
