save webpages for offline browsing

i am trying to create an android application that saves webpages to use it in offline-browsing, i was able to save the webpage but the problem was in the contents (images, javascripts,..etc), is there a way to do so programmatically, i use eclipse and test my work on an emulator.

You will need to search for all images, javascript files, css files, etc... and download them, saving them to the same relative path to the HMTL files - Assuming the html is coded with relative paths (images/image.png) and not absolute paths (http://www.domain.com/image/image.png).

You can pretty easily search the html string for <img, <script, <link etc.. and parse from there - or you can find a 3rd party html parser

hm, I am afraid you should parse html's yourself (I mean do that with a properly lib) and store all resources (css, js, images, videos etc.) too. s. how it is done in a java crawler: open source crawlers
