[x-post] i found a good layout, but can't reproduce it

http://tagsoup.com/-dev/null-/css/fixed/
this is what i was looking for.
it has the fixed things i wanted and works both with internet explorer
and firefox. the problem is i can't reproduce it.
i open the page, "save as..." with internet explorer, but once on my
hard disk it no more works, not in firefox neither in internet
explorer. i also copied and pasted its sources in some files on my
hard disk and tried to include the stylesheets in the sources, but
wasn't able to do it. can somebody please help me understanding why?
it seems --and this is a nonsense, i understand-- that browsers treat
in different ways .html files located on a remote serve and on a local
hard disk.

i'd also appreciate if somebody owning a "talking browser" --or speech
browser? i'm sorry, i don't know the name of the browsers for
ear-blinded people-- tells me if that page creates problems to them.

thanks in advance.

regards,

click view source in the top menu (not on page) and then copy and paste
all into notepad. Then save this as html document.

If this isnt working (the non cross browser part) then perhaps the url
resolves to a server side script page (e.g. php) which does a browser
sniff and renders html based on the results? Perhaps compare the 'view
source' of both IE and firefox?
Hope this helps

i don't know why, but my internet explorer corrupts files when saving
on local hard drive.

Confirmed. Internet Explorer is crap at saving pages!

Download Opera8.5 from http://www.opera.com
open the tagsoup website
select FILE -> SAVE AS
change "Save as type:" so it shows "HTML file with images"

That should save a local copy which works like the real page. It works for
me.

It's not just "your" IE that does this. IE has always mutilated both
HTML and CSS code in the Save As process, presumably so it's "optimized"
for IE's evil purposes. It's nasty stuff.
