It is possible that the content is requested from the server in JavaScript via AJAX and isn't part of the HTML file send by the server.

In such a case the content might not get saved when saving the page and you would have to print the page to a PDF file or save the full page as a screenshot by using an extension or the screenshot command in the Developer Toolbar (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer).

Also, I think there is a script in Facebook pages that redirects you back to their site. I know I've seen that in the past trying to view a page in Google's cache.

In addition to the PDF option, you could copy and paste into Microsoft Word or one of the free Word processors (LibreOffice / OpenOffice.org Writer) that can also understand HTML and handle the layout and images. Even when you select all (Ctrl+a), style rules might not be transfer, so there's a chance it will be pretty ugly (i.e., no background colors or indenting).

anyone tried those steps? I've tried also in other browsers and it happens the same.

jscher2000 I will try your suggestion to copy paste in MS Word

Also I forgot to say that in the past worked to save as a htm. Probably they modified something with the new update.

I tried to copy-paste the posts from the feed in a MS Word document and it doesn't work. When I copy there are a lot of post selected( >100) and when I paste in word, only a few paste (less than 5).
