123558 - "Save Page As" doesn't work for text-only pages

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 119496

(Core Graveyard :: File Handling, defect)

Description

[Jim Graham]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.7) Gecko/20011221
BuildID:    2001122106

If you use "Save Page As" to save the HTML source for a text-only
page (i.e., one with nothing in foo_files for foo.html), Mozilla
gets stuck at 0%---it creates the directory foo_files, but never
goes beyond that point.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to text-only page.  Sample link included.
2.Save Page As ....
3.Wait...and eventually give up when it's clearly stuck.

Actual Results:  Mozilla creates the foo_files directory and stops there.

Expected Results:  Nothing for foo_files?  Don't create it.  Just save the HTML
source.

All the bugs you mention (3 of them) have since been fixed.  I'm picking one at
random to mark as duplicate of.  :)

Please try out 0.9.8 (released last night). The "Save As" feature has been
polished up quite a bit.

Thanks for testing and reporting bugs!
