How do you see all files on a web page?

I am doing an analysis on how a certain web page works.  How do you see all the files involved when you are taking a look at a web page?

What do you mean by "all the files involved"? Are you referring to the html, images, scripts, stylesheets, etc. involved? If so, have you tried Fiddler?

you can also just save the whole html page by doing a cntr+S or cmd+S for a mac to save the whole page. Make sure that you choose save whole webpage in the dialogue. Choose a destination and click ok.
Open up the folder where you saved the webpage and you'll see all the files involved in there. To see what is in the files a common texteditor is needed. I recommend Notepad++ for Windows and Komodo Editor for Mac.
Firefox and Firebug may be helpful.  Also, there is a web site copier called HTTrack.
Wget is a Linux command that can download an entire website. There is also a Windows version of it here.
