What exactly are you asking?

All a link is is a look up for the page address after all, that is why tinyurl and others work so waell. Brian bglists@... Sent via blueyonder. Please address personal E-mail to:- briang1@..., putting 'Brian Gaff' in the display name field.

Anyway, have you already tried to save the page? You can do it simple pressing CTRL+S when you have opened the desired link. Hope this helps Cheers, Marcio Em 08/06/2018 22:26, Brennen Kinch escreveu:

I said it before, in the other topic, but I guess it bears repeating here:
Are you asking how to save a webpage as HTML source? That can be done in any web browser. In Chrome it's under the More Tools submenu, Save page as item and in Firefox it's in the main menu, same option name as Chrome uses. If you're asking about a utility that you can hand a URL and have it generate HTML for embedding, for instance, they definitely exist. See: https://www.textfixer.com/html/convert-url-to-html-link.php for one that you can use online. A command line version has to exist, too, but I didn't dig long enough to find that. -- Brian - Windows 10 Home, 64-Bit, Version 1803, Build 17134 Explanations exist; they have existed for all time; there is always a well-known solution to every human problem — neat, plausible, and wrong. ~ H.L.

You don't have a file in a URL link.
First, the URL of a file is what the link tells the
browser. So you either say URL or link. Saying both is
reduntant. What is the link or what is the URL? Not both.
A link is how you get to a file. It tells the
browser where to go to open and display the file. The file is using html
for formatting and to tell the browser how to display other things.
It's a code such as is used in a word processor to tell the word processor how
to display the document.
You can save a web page as an html document and in
other formats such as a text file. But a link has nothing to do with the
file itself. It just tells the browser where the file is.

As long as its not an active page or one that uses javascript to get at remotely stored data, then saving it and using it offline works well.

Of course these days with in line advertising being inserted from other severs, what you may think is a simple page is anything but quite often. Brian bglists@... Sent via blueyonder. Please address personal E-mail to:- briang1@..., putting 'Brian Gaff' in the display name field.

As a slight sidestep here. I am getting really annoyed of late with companies sending emails with instead of the link being obvious, its hidden behind text in some way.This gives me a problem as I often need to edit a script for reading onto a recording and cutting and pasting such email content strips the url hidden completely.

Hello,
The commands curl and wget can be used to directly retrieve files to your system given the URL. I don't believe either of these commands work for streaming media and you will need to install them to work at all. I believe the wget command allows one to get all referenced URL's in an HTML file while the curl command has options to send user name / password and support for cookies also.

Ervin, Glenn
Sometimes if I am suspect of the URL in a message, I use the applications key and select "copy link" and paste it into Notepad and inspect it.
