Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

When I save a "complete" page to disk, Firefox doesn't keep all the graphics information.

Let's take http://slashdot.org.
Load http://slashdot.org.
Then File/Save Page As... itself, in a directory.
Open the HTML page saved on disk.
Call File/Open File...

Firefox drops the formating. It displays the page only with a basic XML text style.

I was able to save pages this way in Firefox 2.0.
