SaveAs Unpredictable

L

Larry(LJL269)

When I'd like to save a web page's content, I usually
choose between mht(archive), html only, or text as a
last resort since it usually needs extensive editing.
Most of these pages r receipts or instructions.

Problem is that whether I get a warning or not,
sometimes the page does not save correctly & the only
way to tell is to open what I saved. Some pages dont
save correctly in any of 3 file types so I take a pic
of the page. So in worse case I can save a page 4 times
b4 I get a good one.

I was hoping someone would have some guidelines, tips,
rules of thumb,.. on how to save pages.

Your help is MUCH appreciated. Thanks- bye- Larry


Any advice given is my attempt to show appreciation for all
the excellent help I've received here but I'm no MVP so it
may only apply NUGS. Personal attacks, nitpicking & criticism
of anything but content will NOT be responded to. Those

I find the same thing. Sometimes when right-clicking and selecting "Save
Picture As...", it selects an "untitled" BMP instead of a JPG. I noticed
that when searching for some travel images on Google.

That has a fix- seen it several times here - heading
usually has 'save jpg' in title.

Any advise is my attempt to contribute more than I have received but I can only assure you that it works on my PC. GOOD LUCK.
