Offline Browsing Cache
Hi,
Currently when I browse a website and I decide to go offline, I can continue to browser the website on pages I visited. However, if I restart Firefox I am unable to browse the website whose cache should still be stored.
Is there a way to make FireFox to keep cache for my browsing indefinite* for offline usage (at least for selected websites), or maybe a third party product that caches filters sites as I browse using Firefox.
Thanks.
- To the limit of the cache size. Currently I have it maxed at 1024MB.

The built-in Firefox cache is not working very reliable with some web pages that use a lot of JavaScript and other means to generate pages, but should work with simple pages that only display content from the source code.
A possibility is to create a screenshot or print the page to a PDF file.
There are extensions to create a screenshot of the full page and the built-in Developer tools (Shift+F2) also have a screenshot command (enter S and press F1: screenshot --fullpage) to save the full page as a png image.

You can look at one of these extensions:

- ScrapBook: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/scrapbook/
Thank you. Not exactly what I want. I already have scrapbook and read it is no better.

Thank you. I see so it has problems with javascript.
I am afraid that solution is not possible for me. I have several dozens of pages that get updated daily. I wanted to be able to browse them fast and then when I have to go offline, I would still have access to them and (and their links) at my own pace.
It seems self-defeating that currently it works within the same Firefox session in all cases I have come across but I can understand it's a difficult feature.
Thanks I will mark yours as the answer.
