Creating an offline website that you can share with other people

Question

I want to create a dynamic document where my client can click on something on the document and it will link him to another document. I have created a document that can do this through dreamweaver in the form of a website. The only problem is that my client does not want the information in this documentation to be online. So I need to find a way to basically make my website available to him offline.
So in essence I need to be able to share my website through a more discrete form, such as dropbox or email. The problem with this are the links. I can obviously easily share all my html files to my client but all the links will be broken since he will place the other html files on his computer. I have thought of trying to put the files on dropbox and just link them to that but it does not seem to work.
Has anyone done something like this in the past? I think what I need to do is make the link look within its own origin folder or maybe I'm looking at this from the wrong angle.
I would say my level of competence with dreamweaver is about beginner to novice and I understand the fact that I could create a website with password protection or something similiar but that is not ideal.
Thanks

You hit the nail right on the head there.
I've created literally hundreds of HTML "local" site documents like that. I've run them from Flash Drives, CD-ROMs and Hard Drives. The KEY is to create the site in its own folder and make SURE all links point to files within that Root folder and don't have the "absolute" path. ("page.html" - NOT "File:///C/users/[username]/documents/sites/sitename/page.html")
Once you have it done, you can zip it or burn it or copy it to another drive and the links will work as long as all the files are in the root folder and subfolders.
