What is the MHTML document?

The MHTML document is a type of archive document that combines a website and all its resources. This differs significantly from HTML, which only holds the text of the website. While HTML is simply a marking language, MHTML is a complete file format. Because the MHTML document is one file, rather than one file plus the source folder, it is often much easier to handle than the simple HTML documents.

In 1999, a standard was created to determine how the MHTML document should be structured. All documents of this type use the standard to some extent. Many types of MHTML documents come from this standard. The differences between the types of documents do not come from the way the documents are structured, but from how they are stored. Although the format of the document is standardized, the method that the website and its resources are processed into such a document are not.

Document processing differences can cause compatibility problems when the MHTML document is open in a web browser.Some documents can be opened appropriately well in different browsers, but others have a proprietary format that can only be opened in the browser that has created them. Usually, it is usually better to open these documents in the same browser in which they were created because it gives the most faithful recreation of the original website. Opening a document in another browser usually does not cause considerable layout problems, even if there is a possibility. In addition, some browsers do not support MHTML documents without plugins or accessories.

The

version of the website organized in these documents is static, which means that they do not have the ability to dynamically update using the website. MHTML views are similar to HTML viewing that both documents are websites at a certain point. Za účelem vytvořeníAktualizovaný dokument, stránka musí být znovu uložena v novém čase.

MHTML documents are commonly used to send large websites via e -mail orThey facilitate the transfer of smaller websites. Because it is not easy to connect the source folder to the e -mail, the MHTML document format is a quick and easy way around this problem. Sending these documents via E -mail has a wide range of applications, especially in publishing and cooperation on the web.
