The background image in a web page will not save along with the rest of the page. Is there a solution?

I have created for practise purposes a web page (XML/XSLT) that I would like to save as an HTML or preferably an MHT document, which I have done before successfully until I placed a background image - used as a watermark - in the page. This image shows up on the page nicely on-screen as an HTML document, but is not included in the saved version. On my laptop I access and run the web page from Notepad++, but since it will not then save correctly as an HTML (webpage complete) and not at all as an MHT I must firstly run the file from Dreamweaver on my desktop computer, save it as an HTML there and then return to my laptop to save as an MHT (my desktop will not save files as an MHT and since it is not on the Internet I cannot therefore install UnMHT for this purpose and I cannot find a setup file for UnMHT to download instead for manual install.)

Does anyone know of a way of solving this inability to save the web page with the background image/watermark included?

Hello,

I dont think there is any easier way such as save the web page to get the background image !

You might have to work on it a bit such as view background image and then save it or a step similar to this one.

Shoeb, hi.

Thanks for replying and apologies for my tardiness in responding. I have just completed a re-creation of my web page using CSS/HTML rather than XML/XSLT and now I find that when saving in MHT format the watermark/background image is saved, which is nice, but trying to save it as 'webpage complete' under 'save as' in the browser still does not work. (For those who are new to Firefox, MHT files are not supported by the browser, but using the FF extention UnMHT one can open such files and save web documents as MHT files, meaning no accompanying folder is required to properly view the file.)
