Burn website to a CD? Please help?

Question

For a project in our webdesign class, we were asked to construct a website consisting of just a few pages. Problem is, our teacher asked for it to be burned to a CD-R or on a USB and he would not have internet access when viewing our websites. So i'm not sure how to save everything onto a CD because I have many images/videos linked from other websites on my page.

Please help

Answer 1

if you have linked videos and images from other websites that are not yours then that is stealing bandwidth. Good web design is not about adding all of the bells and whistles you can find. it is about having a clean lined, easily navigable, and user friendly site. You might want to consider trimming some of that excess from your site then it should be easier to save.

Answer 2

first try opening each page in Firefox and then go to File > Save Page As
and then in the Save As dialog box select "Web Page, Complete" and see if that will pull all the external content and save it on your drive

or there's the Firefox extension "DownThemAll" that might do it if the above doesn't work

either way you'd need to change all you're links to them in your HTML to relative links - you should know what I mean by that, but if you don't there's a guide here: http://www.phpbbserver.com/stevie19605/viewtopic.php?t=100&mforum=stevie19605

Otherwise you'd just have to limit you're external content to what you can download and link to relatively.

Whichever way you do it make sure you give adequate credit to the site(s), creator(s), etc. you got the content from, otherwise your instructor may have a problem with it. (Don't let it appear that you're presenting the external content as your own, in other words.) --- at the bottom also put something like: "All copyrighted material property of the rightful owner(s)."

Answer 3

Using Internet Explorer - display the web page.

Click on File then on "SAVE AS" -

Save the web page to a folder such as My Documents. Internet Exploer will create a second folder with all the pictures in it.

Then you can burn the main .HTML file which will be in My Documents and its folder to a cd or copy to a USB memory stick.

The folder will be called "xxxx files"

Answer 4

Well you shouldn't "hotlink" images from other websites.

Download the images to your web page folder on your computer and put them on your page that way.
