How can I record everything I browse so that, ideally, it might later enable me to re-surf the same pages without internet access ? For instance, if I go to http://www.example.com/example.html I would like to be able to view the same page later exactly as initially (but without reconnecting to www.example.com). Thank you in advance.

Firefox has extensions which might help you in this.

BetterCache could give you the effect you need.

If not, there's Read It Later and a newer one called Read Later There's also ScrapBook

This is tricky for dynamic web sites. For a largely static set of websites, then a caching web proxy in front of your browser would help, beyond your browser's own built in caching. Also adjust your browser's caching to a large-ish size. Beyond that I don't have a good solution. dynamic and interactive web content isn't designed to be snapshot-able. Browsers with predictive pre-fetching help a small degree here, but otherwise you can re-walk your previous footsteps, assuming the http Cache tags are sane.

For a one-off user, this does fit better on SuperUser.com.
