@Vishal, 'Work Offline' won't work. 'Work Offline' is only meant for not connecting to
the Net & view the web pages in your PC only!!
@Raaza, You need to install the FireFox extension DownThemAll, get it from here
DownThemAll is all you can desire from a download manager: it features an advanced accelerator
that increases speed up to 400% and it allows you to pause and resume downloads at any time!
DownThemAll is fast, reliable and easy-to-use! It lets you download all the links or images contained
in a webpage and much more: you can refine your downloads by fully customizable criteria to get only what you really want!
So install this extension if you want to view Web pages offline.
There is also Zipedia extension, offline Wikipedia browser. It downloads all the contents of Wikipedia,
so that you can view them offline!! Get it from here

internet explorer allows to browse a site offline to a particular level of links,
i've to just open the site offline and can view the site with just one click.
here I asked whether it's posssible to do so in firefox.
but the replies i've got not fulfill my query,
I tried DownThemAll, it downloads a lot of htm files but there's nothing like an index file or a starting file.
I had to open each of them to view.
it's not practical
so isn't there any other ways?
pls don't mention offline softwares like metaproducts offline browser and like that

While "Working Offline", I am able to browse some static websites which are in the Internet Cache.
I would recommend you to increase the disk space allotted to cache and number of days for which history is maintained (as per your need).
If you wish to download a complete website, you may use WinHTTrack (www.httrack.com)

@drgrudge, 'DownThemAll' downloads all the links & it's pretty cumbersome to use
it & also view to all the pages. It doesn't provide a 'index.html' file or something similar.
So you are better off using some other third party software like :
1) HTTrack (*www.httrack.com/)
2) SurfOffline (*www.surfoffline.com/)
3) WebCopier Pro (*www.tomdownload.com/internet/browsers/webcopier.htm)
it & also view to all the pages. It doesn't provide a 'index.html' file or something similar.

that's it,
the problem with DownThemAll is not providing an index file, instead downloads a lot of htm files, one should click each and every files in order to open the particular files, what a pity!
it's not fair
so I think, should go for appz like offline browser, HTTrack etc to view site offline,
anyway pls keep posting here the solution to avoid the installation of another "memory eating" software to view some pages of sites (not a whole website).
i think in this case firefox is not as good as internet explorer 6.
ok guys
thnx 4 all
