One of you asked about difficulty downloading web pages when the original web page has "frames," such as the Bank of Hawaii Annual Report referred to on Honework 1.  You might want to do this if you have access to a fast internet connection somewhere (UH or work, say) but want to save materials to look at at home.  I know of no perfect solutions, but here are some things that (sort of) work under Netscape Navigator 4.0.

1.  Click on the frame you want to save (e.g. the righthand panel in one of the pages of the BankOH report).  Then from the menu select "Save Frame As" and give it a file name for your local computer.  You can save it as html and then use your browser to view the file later, or you can save it as text and use any text editor or word processor to view of print it later.  Either way, you will loose all the embedded images (figures, tables, etc.), unless you download each of those separately, but you can at least read the text.

2.  If you have Netscape Composer, when you are browsing the web page choose from the menu "Edit Frame."  Then when you are in edit mode, do a "File Save As" to save the page as an html file on your disk.  This will also automatically download all the embedded images, so that when you later view the file with your browser all the images should be there.

For some reason, images in the downloaded frame are not necessary correctly formatted.

3. Both these approaches have the disadvantage that you have to save each page individually, which can be quite time consuming.  I understand that there are programs available that one can use to download an entire web page or site and all supporting files.  If anyone has used these, let me know how well they work.

Good luck!  bg
