Some links the web pages were replaced with fixed references on a saved page

I saved a http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/index.html page on my hard drive. The links in the table of contents on the left are all on the original site. I looked at the file on the disk, and this is the case. "An example is < a href ="toc-spacing-questions-1"name ="http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation-big-page#spacing-issues"> 4. Spacing problems < /a >

But the original file had links the in the same place (an expert Web site it tells me), < a href = "toc-spacing-questions-1" name = "rating-big-page #spacing - questions" > 4. Spacing problems < /a >

Not all links are changed: some of them in the body of the text are links local. What I find even more bizarre.

Why (and how) Firefox changes the HTML text?

Thanks Finitarry - but the links are changed to point to the original server, not my downloaded copy. That's the problem!

Also thank cor - el. I use "web page, complete" for download.

I think I found the problem, now that you pointed out where I should be looking. I found the original HTML code, and in most cases, the references are strictly local. But in the case of problem, the link contains the name of the file, what Firefox interprets as an application to point to the original file on the server rather than the local copy. Is this is a bug or a feature would make an interesting discussion. I'm going to ask that the web Manager is is what they meant to happen. I'll try another browser to see what happens there.
