Not sure if this is the right board to ask this - if it's not, apologies.

OK I'll try to explain myself correctly, I'm accessing a Linux machine through SSH via MobaXTerm. Once connected, I launch this software and then the user manual. This causes a Firefox window to open on my computer but which is running in the Linux server I'm connected to.

In other words, I cannot access this website through "regular Firefox" with my laptop since it only runs when connected to this server.

So here's the thing, I need to make an offline copy of this website since it takes ages to open and load while connected to SSH.

Considering I know little about computer science and Linux what is the best way to do this? Thank you so much.

Copy the file using sft/scp ?
If you can't copy the file for some reason (ie: it's on another remote server), you can use ssh tunnel. Google for putty tunnel.
Much faster than forwarding the whole X session.

so you just need the url?
if your X server shares the clipboard, you can copy/paste it into a local browser, otherwise you could just type it into a local browsers' url bar
