Saving web pages with opera mobile?

Hello, can I save the web page (images included) with opera mobile? I haven't been able to figure how. I use a dell axim x51v with Windows Mobile 5. Thank you for your answer(s).

I bought both Opera and Netfront browsers. To the best of my knowledge, the Opera browser cannot do what you described. Also, there is not a straight forward way for Opera browser to read a htm/html page stored in your WM5 x51v (unless you know how to type the URL for a file such as file://\[card]\[directory name]\filename.htm).

Netfront browser allows me to look up an htm page already stored in my x51v, but yet it does not allow me to save a htm page. It does, however, have a auto-Cruise function that makes the browser autumatically browse some user-predefined pages and save them for reading offline. I have not tried the auto-cruise function so you'd better check it out yourself to decide whether it will meet your need.

I sometimes save html pages from you desktop PC (Save As, select "Web page, complete") and read them offline on my Axim using Netfront.

Note completely correct:

Netfront DOES allow you to easily save complete HTML pages.

Simply use the "Page Memo" function. Works great.

DPDUTY: Thanks for pointing that out, I didn't realize that the Page Memo function of Netfront can actually save the web page.

But I should point out that it seems that the web page is saved in a new MIME type with the extension of .mht instead of .html/.htm. The file can be viewed only by Netfront. PIE and Opera cannot display the file as a web page.

No, but IE 6 or 7 can do so. :D

It "only" discusses saving images; saving HTML pages is done in exatly the same way.

Also, you may want to make a generic forum search for my other Web browser-related stuff. For example, in my review of PIEPlus 2.1 beta2 (see http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showthread.php?t=133063 ), I've elaborated a lot on both PIEPlus' and MultiIE's page saving capabilities.

Thanks Menneisyys for the Info. I certainly like the PIEPlus/MultiIE built-in solutions better than the free solution using FE. I've learned a lot from you and others by reading threads on Aximsite.

Thank you all for your answers, I had been a long time since I last read this post, but the least I can say is that aximsite contributors are highly productive ands efficient.
I am going to investigate all that.
