How do I convert an html file to text?

To get to the file I need in text, I have to click on an html link. This opens an html page of data that needs to be imported with the Text Import Wizard. My instructions are to go to the top of the browser click on "View" and select "Source". This only opens the data in html code and will not save as a .txt file.

If you want just the visible text of the page, use File > Save Page As, and change the drop-down to "Text Files".

But if you want to describe the purpose of saving the page in a little more detail, someone might have a better suggestion.
