Steps to reproduce:

  • Open about:reader?url=https://blog.nightly.mozilla.org/2025/04/07/putting-up-wallpaper-these-weeks-in-firefox-issue-178/
  • Use the Save Page As... dialog (Ctrl+S)

Actual results:

The generated HTML file includes the #toolbar section and references internal Firefox files, such as chrome://global/content/reader/moz-slider.mjs.

Expected results:

When you're reading an article with the Reader View feature and use the Save Page As... option:

  • The appropriate stylesheet could be embedded directly into the HTML file with a style tag
  • The HTML file shouldn't include the #toolbar section or references to internal Firefox files
