Downloading a Web page


    You can download a Web page, complete with all its media and references, from any Web site that you can visit with a Web browser. You don't need FTP access to the directories containing the page and its images. The page you download opens in a GoLive document window when the download is complete.

    The page is downloaded to a location you specify, and its media are placed in a folder alongside the page. This folder structure might not reflect the relative locations of the files on the original Web site. Media files or media referenced by scripting languages like JavaScript are not downloaded. (For example, rollover images are not downloaded.)

    Note: You can also download a site or a substructure of a site using the Import Site from Web function in the Site Wizard (see Creating a site or consult the Adobe GoLive Web Workgroup Server User Guide) or, using the Download command in the context menu of either the External tab of the site window or the In & Out Links palette. (See Importing sites from remote servers.)

To download a Web page:

  1. Be sure you have a live Web connection.
  2. Choose File > Download Page.
  3. Enter the URL for the page.
  4. Click Save As, specify a location, then click Save.
  5. Tip iconSince the page you'll download probably consists of several files, consider creating a new folder for them.
