saving pages exactly as they appear on website
When I want to save a page exactly as it appears on a website, I right click on it and then click "Save page as" and put it into a folder on my desktop. When I go to the desktop folder and click on what I've saved, all I see is a whole list of meaningless files and no page as viewed on website. How do I save the page as it appears on the website and why don't you have a "save as" option like other programs, browsers and platforms do?

Firefox saves a web page as two parts if you use save as "Web Page, complete". The first in the main xxx.html file and the second is a xxx_files folder for additional files (CSS, JavaScript, images and others). It sounds that you were looking in the xxx_files folder and missed the xxx.html file.

Also, maybe:
The Save Page As ... Web page (Complete) seems to fail on many complex pages. Always check the Downloads button on the toolbar for a yellow dot indicating a problem and retry if you see one (it generally succeeds on the second try).
And:
There's no guarantee that files which work on a web server will work the same way when run from file:/// addresses. You may wish to also capture a full page screenshot or PDF if you can't afford to have any differences.
You can possibly save the page as a full page screenshot.
