MHTML, short for MIME HTML, is a file format that archives web pages. The format combines HTML code, images, JavaScript, and other resources into a single file using MIME type multipart/related. This method of encapsulating a complete webpage (or set of webpages) in a single file makes MHTML files convenient for saving, sharing, and viewing web content offline. MHTML files typically have the extension .mhtml or .mht and can be opened by various web browsers.
