following:

>I suppose the html is a much complex situation where more processes need to be done before it can be opened by a web browser:-)

	There's practically no HTML in that page -- just miles of Javascript.
The one obvious item is:

-=-=-=-=-=-
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"
src="/forum/C53652DA8B67255A46256B72F0D65A40.cache.js">
        
      </script>
-=-=-=-=-=-

which is a RELATIVE path. If you copied the file to your machine and then
load it in a browser, it will be looking for

/forum/C53652DA8B67255A46256B72F0D65A40.cache.js 

to be on your machine in a subdirectory of where you saved the main file.

	You'd have to recreate most of the Google environment and fetch
anything that was referenced through a relative path first, to get the
content to display. Of course, you may find, for example, that the
Javascript at some point is doing a database lookup -- and you'd maybe have
to now duplicate the database...
