Yes. I can open in new tab. How can I open by clicking on the icon?

When you save a web page, you are saving Not Just A File, but normally a 'Boss' file and also a sub-directory that holds the other information. If you were to move the Boss file, it would not work properly.

Also, if you select to save a web page, you have different file types you can use for saving. If one is not working, try another.

Can you open those pages while Firefox is running via "Firefox > New Tab > Open File"?

Hey, MOZILLA! Can you help us with this? Macbook Pro, up to date OS I used to be able to save web pages with no trouble, and see them. But now, it opens in Safari, for some reason, and it's totally screwed up with that   BS all over the place. HELP! Jerry Ryberg [email protected]
