Hi. Thanks for the info, but I think you’re about five levels above my pay grade, mac wise. Thanks.

I don't know of a Safari plugin but if you have MacPorts installed you get the open source wget tool and then use it in terminal to grab a bunch of pages and store them on your hard drive:
wget -mcrpk -o process.log http://www.abcd.com Parameters: O - output of the process is written to a file instead of the display. In this case I logged everything to process.log M - Mirror - copies timestamps and recursion C - Continues a partly-downloaded transfer. Probably not as big an issue on a good connection R - Recursion, but this might not have been needed with the M. Figured it didn't hurt. P - Download any page dependencies like CSS, images etc. K - Convert all links to relative URLs so it doesn't keep trying to link off to the original site or path It will crawl every link of every page and store it all in your current folder. Then you can webshare that folder to make your own mini version of the site or just open the top level file in Safari. The latter method may not always work since modern sites use javascript ajax stuff to suck in piecesparts from a web server which is not what is happening when you just open a file directly from your hard drive.
