We should be able to store on our hd the entire websites content, excluding of course the files stored on the servers website. This is good if you're gone somewhere or just in case you need that information very quickly without an internet connection. We should think, if possible, to integrate an update system  to update the contents if the page in question has been updated.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:




We should consider this if possible for Firefox 3
Flags: blocking1.9a1?
Version: unspecified → Trunk
I'm not sure to which component we have to set here, the product should be set to core thought but I let Firefox General for now if someone know the right category ..
For the first part of your comments, isn't that what File->Save Page As is for? You can select the "Web Page (complete)" option from the drop-down box for "Save as type."

As for the second part of your comment, do you mean something like IE's web page synchronization thing?

I looked at IE and saw that through it's Favorites, you can select pages you wish to be able to view offline through a "Make available offline" check box. This is tied into the syncronize stuff available through Tools->Synchronize. 
[grr, can't type in c#4: s/it's/its/ && s/syncronize/synchronize/]

Bug 216490 is titled "Implement full working offline browsing feature."
Is that really what you are wanting?
