I tried all four of the file saving categories (Web Page, Complete; Web Page, HTML Only; Text Files; All Files) and *only* "Web Page, Complete" saved the modified copy. Although saving modified pages is possible once one learns about the "Web Page, Complete" option it does behave differently than all the others and it's not at all intuitive (imho). Having an option to save a document and its associated files is a good thing. No idea what the difference between the other three options are. From my perspective it would be nice to be able to snapshot states of a web page as it changes without having to pull in all of its related files on each save. There is also the consideration that the exception to conventional usage does require special documentation to advise users how to "work around" the contravention. "Do it this way unless..." is always a built in disaster. :m) -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
