Guess I have to explain it in detail:
No, I'm not looking for programs like Web Whacker, Teleport or any other =
web grabber.=20
What I'll have to do is to distribute a bunch of HTML-files an CD-ROM to =
people who might not have a web browser installed on their computers. =
Those HTML-files use tables, frames, javascript and maybe a bit of CSS.
As I do not want those people to force to install a web browser they =
otherwise wouldn't need I'd like to give them a chance to just insert =
the CD-ROM and have things going.
So I'm looking for an offline web browser that works from a CD-ROM.
(And, NO, I do NOT need a web server as some other guy suggested).
And NO, PDF is not the way to go in this case.

Thanks, anyway
