Mozilla Archive Format, with MHT and Faithful Save Version History

51 versions

Be careful with old versions!

These versions are displayed for reference and testing purposes. You should always use the latest version of an add-on.

Version 5.2.1 424.9 KiB Works with Firefox 52.0 - 56.*, SeaMonkey 2.46 - 2.46.*

This add-on is only compatible with Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR) until September 5, 2018.

The commands to save web pages as MAFF or MHTML are now disabled by default, and additional information on compatibility and file format conversion is displayed when updating from previous versions.

The save commands can be enabled again from the options of the add-on, keeping in mind that current versions of Firefox and future versions of Firefox ESR will not be able to open the pages saved in this way.

See the official website for details.

Version 5.2.0 424.9 KiB Works with Firefox 52.0 - 56.*, SeaMonkey 2.46 - 2.46.*

This add-on will not work in future versions of Firefox.

Several changes have been made in version 5.2 to help the transition to alternative solutions for archiving web pages locally:

– The original location is now preserved in a source code comment when saving complete web pages, despite this information will not be displayed by future versions of Firefox.
– When converting web archives to complete web pages, the modification time of the support folder is now updated as well.
– The internal notation used to indicate resources that were not saved was shortened in order to make the source code of converted pages more consistent.

Mozilla Archive Format 4.0.0 introduces partial compatibility with multi-process Firefox.

– When multi-process Firefox is enabled, compatibility information is displayed in English in the main pane of the options dialog, and the dialog is shown automatically the first time this condition is detected.
– Full support for displaying the contents of web archives.
– The notification bar with information about the original save date and location is not displayed when multi-process Firefox is enabled.
– Web archives cannot be created when multi-process Firefox is enabled, however it is now possible to use the browser's standard save system to save complete web pages in multiple files, without disabling the add-on first.

Several features have been removed or redesigned in preparation for full compatibility with multi-process Firefox:

– Taking an exact snapshot of the page is now required to create web archives, and the browser's standard save system can only be used to save complete web pages in multiple files. All the generated MHTML files are now fully compatible with other browsers, since the option to create partially compatible archives using the browser's standard save system is not available anymore.
– The separate Archives dialog and the integrated Save Complete component have been removed.
– The existing integration with the page context menu, the Tools menu, and the application menu of older versions of Firefox has been removed in favor of the integration with the customizable menu button.
– The preference to use the page title instead of the default suggested file name in the "Save As" dialog has been removed since this is now the default naming strategy in Firefox.

Mozilla Archive Format 3.0 features increased compactness when saving pages, as well as several other improvements and changes over the previous versions.

– Stylesheet rules that don't apply to any element in the current page are now removed from the saved file. This can greatly increase compactness when content is modified by scripts or other extensions before saving.

– The option to take an exact snapshot of the page is now selected by default, to take advantage of various improvements in the save method, even if it was deselected in a previous version of the add-on. The browser's standard save system and the integrated Save Complete component can still be selected from the options dialog and the internal configuration settings respectively.

– The notification bar with information about the original save date and location can now be disabled from the options.

– Now file associations on Windows are created correctly when using the add-on in third-party browsers based on Firefox or SeaMonkey.

– The option to display an archive information icon in the status bar is not available anymore, together with the option to display the icon in the location bar at all times. The icon can only be displayed in the location bar when an archived page is opened.

– The creation of MHTML files that are fully compatible with other browsers cannot be explicitly disabled anymore. All the generated MHTML files are now fully compatible, as long as the option to take an exact snapshot of the page is selected.
