Try the singlefile firefox addon. It will save the page to a single HTML file that you can open in other devices too. Usually you'll be able to scroll back quite a few messages in the saved page. I think that depends on how much you scroll back to load them
unfortunately, didn't work for me. Singlefile is absolutely awesome, I use it for many things but singlefile ain't for this :(
May I ask what was the problem? A few weeks ago I tried to save messages this way, and (to my surprise) it worked fine.
for normal html sites, it would just download the whole page, and it works here too. But it downloads the whole chat while I just want a copy of last ten messages
I see, it downloads too much.
You could try the "save selection function.
Or with the "annotate and save page" function, if in the annotation editor tab you click "enable/disable removing of internal elements", I think you could try deleting any messages that's not needed.
