What Is the File Extension .MHTML?

Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is a programming language used to create the layout for Web pages. A number of different files are associated with HTML programming, including those that use the .MHTML file extension.

  1. Identification

    • A file with the .MHTML file extension is known as a Mime HTML file, an archiving format.

    Function

    • A file with the .MHTML file extension contains a copy of a Web page saved to your computer that you can access even when you are not online.

    Features

    • An .MHTML file contains not only the text from the website, but any other elements found on the Web page as well, such as animations, images, movies or audio files.

    Browsers

    • A number of browsers on Mac OS X and Windows computers have the ability to create and open .MHTML files, including versions 5 and later of Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox (with the Mozilla Archive Format extension installed) and Opera.

    Considerations

    • An .MHTML file contains only one page from a website, so none of the links on the website will work if you are offline. In order to access a number of different pages within a website while offline, it is necessary to save each page as a separate .MHTML file.
