[[Mozilla Archive Format|MAFF]] is an open format (with a published specification) that enables saving of whole webpages in a single file. It is currently supported by [[Firefox]], using an extension.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mozilla-archive-format/ |title=Mozilla Archive Format, with MHT and Faithful Save |accessdate=8 December 2011|url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171102005204/https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mozilla-archive-format/ |archive-date=2 November 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/webscrapbook/ |title=WebScrapBook |accessdate=17 November 2019 }}</ref> Other web browsers use the [[MHTML]] format or do the equivalent by saving a directory of inline resources (usually images) alongside the [[HTML]] file, sometimes compressed, like the [[KDE WAR (file format)|.war]] format used by [[Konqueror]] (tar+gzip or tar+bzip2). Safari does not support these alternative archive formats.
 
For archiving entire websites, the [[Internet Archive]] has developed the [[Web ARChive]] (WARC) format which was standardized by [[International Standards Association|ISO]].
