297444 - When saving web pages, Firefox keeps jumping back to "Web Page, complete" mode.

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: File Handling, defect)

Description

[Rick Pikul]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050415 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050415 Firefox/1.0.4

When saving web pages, it often switches back to saving the complete web page
with a <foo>_files directory

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open a page with images.
2.Save the page, making sure to set to HTML only.
3.Save again, without opening the browse directories section, (overwite the
first save).

Actual Results:  
You get a web page save in complete mode, including a <foo>_files directory.

Expected Results:  
Kept the selected mode between saves.

Only extension related to saving: Download Manager Tweak

To make fix into enhancement:  Allow locking in user specified mode, (e.g. I
almost never want complete or text only, and wouldn't mind having to manualy
select each time I did).
