I don't know what is giving you that message. You should be able to right-click on the web page, and choose "Save Page As..." and then save it as "Web Page, Complete". Save it as "pycon_tutorial.html" and then when offline you can File|Open from your web browser, point it at the file, and read. I just tried this with Firefox and it worked fine. > Could someone be so nice and elucidate me as to how place a copy of the > tutorial on my hard disk? It would be greatly appreciated! The above instructions should work. If not, let us know what browser you are using. > May I also suggest to place a pdf version on dabodev.com instead of > merely a link to GoogleDoc?

I suppose we could write a script that would wget the file and associated image files, and run that through html2pdf, but is that really necessary if you could just do that yourself? You may want PDF, someone else may want plain text, etc. etc. Paul _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-users Searchable Archives: http://leafe.com/archives/search/dabo-users This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/[email protected]
