Yes, there are sites that will not copy correctly even when using Ctrl-A.

Ran into this over the weekend at Wikipedia, even though everything in the browser is selected, only the text frame content is copied - the side and top frames don't make it to UR. I had to resort to Save As to .mht from within IE.

From Wikipedia:

Yet other sites that use frames will be copied w/o problem. Granted there are a myriad ways to employ frames and various methods to achieve layout, but as a user it's difficult to know which sites are going to come thru w/o problems.
