What is the ProReviewer Experience?
I find this a very useful Firefox add-on which I use to save ProReviewer pages and relevant site pages with the downloaded program file for programs I am reviewing or programs I intend to review. I also use the Firefox Add-on Scrapbook as well as Google Notes for archiving information but mht files work best for this particular need.
Personally I rate this as:
Useful – Simple – Good Options
What Could Make it be Better?
- Select pages/tabs to save in the Save All Tabs dialog
- Option to Rename existing files not just overwrite
What Other Posts are Relevant?
TIP – Use Firefox Portable for Multiple Profiles and Backups
Brief 1.1 – Firefox Add-on – Simple BUT Very Effective RSS Reader
Firefox Add-on – Statusbars – Get Your Statusbars Organized
Firefox Beta 3 – Use Extension List Dumper Add-on to Find Compatible Extensions

It is (was) a bit annoying, that it does not become part of the File menu ‘Save As’.
I say ‘was annoying’, as I have set the keyboard shortcut to Ctrl Spacebar.
That nows shows the mht Save As dialog.
This feels very natural.
I highlight a word or two, within the web page, which is to become the name of my mht file.
I use Ctrl C to copy the name.
Then Ctrl Spacebar to show the Save As dialog.
Then Ctrl V to paste the name.
And then I hit the Enter key.

This addon looks good, I didn’t know about it. I may not use archiving web pages so much but it does make life easier if it’s just in one file. The project seems to be quite active because they’ve now updated their addon for firefox 3.5 too. Great!. Thanks for sharing it. I think Firefox wins in this area and thats what differs it from other browsers, IE and opera. Opera widgets are not as strong as Firefox addons (in my opinion).

This is a very cool addon, thanks for sharing and for the helpful description. I might switch from my kludgy wget command that I use to this. Thanks again.

Firefox doesn’t natively handle the web archive single file format. The advantage is that using this format saves all the elements of the web page as a single file.
