Description from store CHANGES Version 22.1 • Minor changes/fixes. OVERVIEW Save Page WE provides a simple facility to save a web page (as currently displayed) as a single HTML file that can be opened in any browser. The saved page is a highly accurate representation of the original page. Multiple pages can be saved either by selecting multiple tabs or by loading a list of page URLs. Save Page WE is implemented using the WebExtensions API and is available for both Firefox and Chrome with identical functions and user interfaces. If used with Print Edit WE, Save Page WE now requires Print Edit WE 26.1 or later for full compatibility. OPTIONS PAGE The Save Page WE Options page can be accessed as follows: • Firefox - Right-click on the toolbar button, select Manage Extension, click on the ••• button and select Options. • Chrome - Right-click on the toolbar button, and then select Options. TOOLBAR BUTTON After installation of Save Page WE, there will be a new blue 'floppy-disk' button on the main toolbar. To save the web pages in all of the currently selected tabs file, just click on the Save Page WE toolbar button. There is are options to set the button action as: • Save Selected Tabs (Basic, Standard or Custom Items) • Save Listed URLs (Basic, Standard or Custom Items) There is an option to prompt the user to enter comments when saving the file. There is an option to use the old save method, as used in Version 18.0 or earlier. There is an option to always show the 'Save As' dialog box when saving a page. If this option is not enabled, the 'Save As' dialog box will only be shown if the Chrome 'Downloads' option is set to 'Ask where to save each file before downloading'. There are options to specify the format of the saved file name. See the 'Saved File Name' section below. By default the saved HTML file will have a '.html' extension. CONTEXT MENU & BUTTON MENU To save a web page as an HTML file, or to perform operations on a previously saved page, right-click on the page contents to open the context menu, select the 'Save Page WE' sub-menu, and then select one of the menu items: • Save Selected Tabs (Basic, Standard or Custom Items) • Save Listed URLs (Basic, Standard or Custom Items) • View Saved Page Info • Remove Resource Loader • Extract Image/Audio/Video • Cancel Save Alternatively, right-click on the Save Page WE toolbar button to open the button menu, and then select one of the menu items. There is an option to show/hide the Save Page WE submenu item on the context menu. Note, the 'Remove Resource Loader' menu item is only shown when viewing a page saved by Save Page WE 15.1 or earlier. Note, the 'Extract Image/Audio/Video' menu item is only shown on the context menu when right-clicking on images in saved pages. KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS To save a web page as an HTML file, press Alt+A. To cancel a single or multiple page save, press Alt+C. SAVING MULTIPLE PAGES There are two ways to save multiple pages: • Highlight multiple tabs and then select the 'Save Selected Tabs' menu item. • Load a file containing a list of URLs in the Zoom Page WE Options dialog and then select the 'Save Listed URLs' menu item. When saving multiple pages, tabs are switched to foreground if the force lazy load option is enabled. SAVED ITEMS Save Basic Items - saves these items: • HTML elements • HTML image files (currently displayed) • HTML canvas graphics • CSS style sheets • CSS image files (currently displayed) • CSS font files (used by this browser) Save Standard Items - saves the Basic Items and these items: • HTML image files (all) • HTML audio & video files • HTML object & embed files • CSS font files (woff for any browser) Save Custom Items - saves the Basic Items and the items selected from this list: • HTML image files (all) • HTML audio & video files • HTML object & embed files • CSS image files (all) • CSS font files (woff for any browser) • CSS font files (all) • Scripts (in same-origin frames) Note, scripts in cross-origin frames are never saved. There is an option to shrink the page to force lazy loading of images before saving the page. There is an experimental option to shrink the page to force lazy loading of images before saving the page. There is an option to retain cross-origin frames when saving the page. Note, cross-origin iframes often contain adverts or visitor comments. There is an option to merge duplicate CSS images (to reduce the saved file size). There are options to remove or rehide elements hidden by the page itself or by other extensions, such as page editors (e.g Print Edit WE) or content blockers (e.g. uBlock Origin). There is an option to include an information bar at the top of the saved page. There is an option to include metrics and resource summary in the saved file. There is an option to set the maximum depth of saved nested frames/iframes. SAVED FILE NAME There is an option to specify the format of the saved file name. This format is used when saving the complete page and when extracting a resource (Image/Audio/Video). The saved file name may contain the following predefined fields: • %TITLE% - (saving a page) the document title or if this is empty the same as %FILE% • %TITLE% - (extracting a resource) the same as %FILE% • %DATE(x)% - the current date in YYYYxMMxDD format, where 'x' is any character or can be omitted. • %TIME(x)% - the current time in HHxMMxSS format, where 'x' is any character or can be omitted. • %HOST% - the host name in the page or resource URL • %HOSTW% - the host name in the page or resource URL without the 'www.'; prefix. • %PATH% - the path in the page or resource URL without the final file extension • %FILE% - the file in the last segment of the path without the final file extension There are options to replace spaces in the saved file name with a user-defined character and to set the maximum length of the saved file name. CONFIGURING CHROME Go to Chrome Menu Button > Settings > Advanced. In the Downloads section, set the downloads folder location, and enable or disable the 'Ask where to save each file before downloading' option. After saving a page, a download item will appear in the download bar at the bottom of the browser window. Click on the arrow in the download item and enable or disable the 'Always open files of this type' option. LOADING RESOURCES There is an option to set the maximum time allowed for loading a Listed URL. There is an option to set the maximum size allowed for large or repeatedly referenced resources. There is an option to set the maximum time allowed for loading individual resources. There is an option to allow loading of passive mixed content (image,audio,video). There is an option to send a referer header when requesting a resource. The options are: do not send a refer header, send a referer header with origin only, or send a referer header with origin and path (origin only in private browsing). UNSAVED RESOURCES There is an option to show a warning if any resources cannot be saved. There is an option to show a list of all resources that cannot be saved. There is an option to remove URLs of unsaved resources, which avoids unsaved resources being loaded from the internet when the saved page is opened. USING AUTOMATION There is an option to use automation mode, allowing a page to be saved from the command line. If this option is enabled: • When Firefox starts, Save Page WE will be automatically initiated using the current Button Action. • When the save operation is complete, Firefox will be automatically closed. To exit automation mode, immediately after Firefox starts up, use the 'Cancel Save' menu command or keyboard shortcut to cancel the save operation, and then disable the option to use automation. Note, the new saved method is always used when the use automation option is enabled. SAVE METHODS Below are some important details about the new and old save methods. Old Save Method: • The default in Version 18.0 or earlier. • Remembers the last save location in both Firefox and Chrome. • Cannot save a few pages (e.g Yahoo) in Chrome 84 or later. • In which case the save will fail without any error messages. • Use the new save method for these pages. New Save Method: • The default in Version 19.0. Optional in Version 20.0 or later. • Remembers the last save location in Firefox 78 or later, but not in Chrome. • Can save all pages. • Other download extensions may change the saved file name to a UUID. • For example "9bd65c08-5f1c-491c-bf61-63d90638bf9e.html". • In which case try uninstalling and reinstalling Save Page WE. • Or use the old save method. SAVED FILE FORMAT The HTML elements (as currently displayed) and all of the referenced resources are saved in a single file (.html). External CSS style sheets are converted to internal CSS style sheets. Frame contents and external scripts are stored as UTF-8 data URIs in the 'src' attribute. Iframe contents are stored as UTF-8 text in the 'srcdoc' attribute. All binary resources (images, fonts, audios, videos, etc) are stored as Base64 data URIs. CSS images referenced multiple times within a frame will only be stored once in that frame. CSS fonts and HTML images/audios/videos will be stored once for each reference. Note that not all cross-origin frames can be saved. A cross-origin frame will be saved only if all of its cross-origin ancestor frames can run content scripts. Scripts in cross-origin frames are not saved. There is an option to format the HTML source code in the saved file.

(2023-10-24) Savio A: I am trying to save a list of URLs loaded from a file. The issues I see: 1. Each URL is loaded on a new tab. That tab then needs to be manually selected, else the Save Page WE plugin doesn't get triggered. Let us call this tab A. 2. Once the page is downloaded and saved, the tab closes (tab A). This happens even if the check box to close the tab after saving, is not selected under Options. 3. Now when the new URL is loaded on a new tab (say tab B), again the tab needs to be manually selected, and so on. This means the plugin cannot function for a bunch of URLs, because each time, the user needs to manually select the newly opened tab. Any reasons why this is happening? Is this be design or is it a bug?

(2023-10-05) Mark Vogel: This was a reasonably good extension, yes sometimes I could not save a page and had to opt for taking a screenshot instead. But in the last week or ten days ago it's started replicating tabs with strange text in the URL area as though it's slowly decoding the page I selected to save as an HTML file, I have three tabs doing that right now with text in the URL area like "font weight: 500" and "font: roboto" which appear to be in the html code/formatting of the web page, but it never makes it to the Save AS menu. I hope this is fixable.
