Hello, you can parse information from page without downloading it.
For Python most common library for web parsing is BeautifulSoup, just search for "Python web parsing tutorial" and you'll be good.

@mezhgano Hi, I have searched for several public resources to parse it but all of them are talking about extract to html while ignoring all other resources like images and css. Do you know how to parse all resources out as "Save as" operation in the Chrome by clicking right mouse?
