If a user saves a page, he will still be missing any externally loaded .htm, .css, .js, .swf, .mid, .xsl, etc files. But It's only a small obstacle for the inevitable.

Yeah, and you could always have to guys with the black helicopters come and pay him a visit. ;)

But seriously, I wouldn't worry about it... If it is for a class you are getting graded on it, tell the teacher. It is still cheating/plagerism. Now if he actually used what he took to learn and adapted on it, then that's a little different.
