How do i offline surf on firefox like in Internet explorer?

In IE when offline, i can search my old webpages, movies etc... while not connected to the internet, but in firefox it won't let me. Is there an option it will let me? I checked tools and can't find anything.

Does (File -> Work Offline) not work? I never use it so I don't know, but that is what I would try first.

File>Work offline. I think. Never used it before myself.

There are probably other plugins like this, perhaps better ones... I don't browse offline so this isn't something I typically look for, but you may wish to check that extension out.
