You can try with this bugzilla page: hit Ctrl+S, FB will ask for saving viewtopic.php file. But you aren't saving a cgi file: you are saving only a rendered html! This cause a broken behavior in Windows Explorer: double clicking on the saved page starts another associated program and not the default browser! It is a critical bug for unexperienced users! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Visit a dynamic generated page (.php, .cgi, .pl ...) 2. Go to menu File -> Save as... 3. The file name proposed has not the .html extension Actual Results: You cannot open the file saved with double click in Windows Explorer. Expected Results: The old behaviour: It should add the .html extension to the dynamic page filenames.
In IE, when a page saved with "Web Page, HTML only", this URL(http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220680) is saved to "Bug 220680 - Save as dialog doesn't append _htm extension to dynamic page names.htm" and the original file name "show_bug.cgi" is totally lost. I guess this bug may be WONTFIX, but if it's not, "show_bug.cgi.html" would be better for the name of the saved file, hopefully with check box to turn off .html appending.
