As above.

There is a thread on a forum that I wish to save and host elsewhere, in case the original is deleted.

How do I do it?

Why save the source code instead of just saving the page?

Saving the page should save all the images etc as well.

Just save the page as web page complete and upload all that stuff somewhere else.

I'd personally prefer to print screen the whole lot as proof...

Get it time stamped as you take the pics so it's obvious it's not been tampered with etc.
