[WEB4LIB] Re: screen capture help

[Walt_Crawford at notes.rlg.org]

Pardon my naivete, but can't you just use the browser itself to save pages
(or sites) to disk, then use the browser to show them offline?

What does third-party software do that the browsers don't do directly?

Nick and all,

I've used a program called Grab-a-Site by Blue Squirrel (about $70) to
capture whole web sites and then show them later. The nice thing about it
is that once you have captured the site, you don't need an Internet
connection to show it, just the software installed on the computer.
