    Sorta. You can view the page source and if you save that as an html you'll be able to recreate the page. But that's not really a backup of the website, more like just a snapshot of one page.

    Ok I have it saved in notepad But I think I did something wrong.
    When I try to open in IE or firefox it look the same as the notepad.
    I understand it's only a copy of the one page and I have to put them
    back together so the buttons will work again. But I thought when
    I open it in IE or firefox it would look like the page.
    So where am I messing up (other than trying to do this lol)
    Thanks for your help.

    You need a website downloader, which will preserve all the file structure. Try HTTrack: http://www.httrack.com/

    Notepad probably gave it a .txt extension (possibly hidden depending on how you have your file folder views) so it may actually be named webpage.html.txt
