I'm happy enough with the advance I made and I hope you will check out what
I stumbled on.
I did enough googling to learn that there is a problem here wrt to saving
complete web pages using Safari and other
browsers and I think this a pity.
It's possible to save all images one by one by holding down the ctrl key
and clicking on the image and using the pop up
one can save the image to the desktop for example useful for people who can
use images say on their own websites without
breaching copyright and so on. This feature is not advantageous to me
though.

Well, I haven't looked at C4's website, but one possibility might be
that the missing images are generated dynamically on the server when you
request the page, rather than just being regular static image files.
That, I think, might result in being able to save them individually by
Ctrl-clicking once the page has loaded in your browser, but wouldn't let
you view those images in the web archive version unless you were online.

Like I said, though, that's just a theory... can you give the address of
a specific page that you're seeing this problem on?

Hello Calum,

This is the website I'm talking about:

http://www.channel4.com/science/microsites/G/great_global_warming_swindle/index.html

and I just looked at it online and the active graphic on the right hand side is active for me offline using the
methodology I was talking about. However if you look at the little box on the left hand side with the active or dynamic
graphics you will see the part of the web page that fails to reproduce offline.
The web page I listed where the explanation why the Mac can act as a conduit for Windows apps. does appear complete when
I view it offline using the steps I described to you.
I remain disappointed though that my crazy system to view complete web pages doesn't work perfectly on the Channel 4
website stroked just above. It delivers a whole lot more than what I see in the normal way but this is all based on
digital processing and when one smaller part of such a system doesn't work it's painfully necessary to have it all work
to feel good about the entire thing.

Happy Days,

Peter Nolan.
