When a page is saved, the browser downloads the HTML source code. If saved as 'Webpage, Complete', the browser also creates a folder containing associated assets like CSS files (Cascading Style Sheets) and images. The HTML file uses tags to link these assets relative to the file path, allowing the browser to render the local copy identical to the live web version.

Offline viewing allows users to access information without bandwidth consumption.
