I want to copy a facebook page for future use and would like to save everything I can get over the course of at least a year. I thought there was a function to take a “snap shot” but can’t find it. Thanks in advance for any help.

To just save an image of the page, use the print-screen methods the other posters mentioned. Otherwise, you can save a copy of the page itself, including the html and other documents; for example, in FF if you go to File>Save Page As ... you’ll have the option to save the page as “Web Page, complete”. However, keep in mind that doing so might not actually save everything - a lot of webpages like facebook now use javascript to pull content down from the server and put it into the page and just saving the page as a complete webpage won’t save the data that the javascript pulls down from the server after the script itself has been loaded.
