Actually this appears the default setting, so the most likely reason 
for your observation has been given by Martin Gregorie in another 
reply to this thread.  The browser additionally fetches related 
resources linked from the content you initially get from the URL 
given.  These related resources may include scripts which the 
browser also evaluates, and they may dynamically change the content 
you're finally seeing in the browser.

Stuff like cookies maintaining specific session in the browser may 
also change the result you're getting.
