I save a web site using Firefox 33.0 as "Web Page, Complete".

The problem is, the html tree of the main html file is changed statically. Before saving there was something like that:

Stuff before
<form name="test1>
inner stuff
</form>
Stuff after

After saving it looks follow:

Stuff before
<form name="test1"></form>
inner stuff
Stuff after

I tried Google Chrome and IE. The same thing.

If I save it as "Web Page, HTML Page only", the html tree is saved properly.

What issue could it be?

Thank you in advance.

The "Save as" > "Web Page, Complete" feature, does not save invalid html. The invalid html is modified on save so that it becomes valid.

I don't know what your [inner stuff] is, so I don't know how it is offending, but you can try this for instance with placing a block level element inside an inline element. 

 <span><div>Hello</div><span>

becomes 

 <span><span><div>Hello</div>

while 

 <div><div>Hello</div></div>

stays the same.

In this example the offending elements are pushed outside the container, to make the markup valid.
