The HTML files generated by using the menu option "Save Page As" don't work properly.

I saved a lot of pages using the option "Save Page As", mostly Reddit posts. The problem is, each time I try to open one of these HTM/HTML files they just don't load properly. The page loads properly for a split second and then the "body" of the page (by body I mean the main part where the content is) dissapears.

At the beginning I thought it was a Reddit problem, but I tried with different sites and it's always the same result or even worse. I opened these HTM/HTML files with different browsers and the result is also the same. In that moment I was using something lower than Firefox 105.0.0, now I'm using 105.0.2.

I would like to make this files work, but if that isn't possible, I'd like to extract the URL from this files so I can still read them and delete them later, but I need a massive way to extract these URL because I have over 1000 of these files. Thanks in advance.

Some websites use JavaScript to retrieve content from the server via a XHR request to build the page. In such a case saving the website via "Save Page As" may not work. You can possibly save a full screenshot of the page or print the file to PDF.

Did you "Save Page As" using "Web Page, complete" or "Web Page, HTML only"? Saving this mozilla support page as "Web Page, HTML only" produces a file which does display correctly in Firefox. It still needs all the other files which "Web Page, complete" would save, but it gets them from the internet. The file contains its own URL as "<link rel="canonical" href="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1392128" />". Perhaps you could examine your files using something like Notepad to find the URLs you want.
