You can load any single file by using Mosaic's "Open Local" feature or
specifying URL's like:
file:top.html
rather than the usual
http://machine.foo.bar/blah/top.html
>2. then copy/install/upload/whatever it to an appropriate place on an
>appropriate W3 server, and have it still work.
If you don't care about testing the hyperlinks, you can just
write the document with "http:" URL's, and use the "Open Local"
functionality mentioned above.
If you want everything fully functional at home, you can either
set up an http server AND convince your home machine that it should
respond to net traffic aimed at the real inet site, or you can
write your document at first with "file:" URL's, and use a sed
filter to convert them to "http:" URL's before you install them.

The best place to start is to look at the HTML for existing documents.
Mosaic has a great "View Source" (or whatever) option so you can arbitrarily
look under the hood of any HTML document. Alot of people seem to start
off by writing their own home page. That's what I did.
