The html file started out in an editor on on another machine, and was 
created by someone typing at the keyboard. It was then saved to hard disk 
as a file. The other machine then read the file into memory, and then 
sent it as a byte stream to the tcp/ip stack, where it was broken down 
down into packets which travelled across the tcp/ip network onto your 
server. Your server then re-assembled the packets into a byte stream 
which filled a block of memory, and then wrote the contents of that block 
of memory to disc as a file.

(This explanation may contain some assumptions.)
