--- Comment #6 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote@utsa.edu> ---
Work on the Writer Web module ended at HTML 4.0 Transitional--while not
officially deprecated the feature is essentially abandoned.

Import and Export (save to HTML) works reasonably well for inline CSS2 HTML 4.0
markup--that is it. 

The default import filter mode for opening a .HTML document with LibreOffice is
into the Writer Web module, into its 'Web' (un-paged view). I can not confirm
reported issue of import opening to Writer Web 'Normal' (i.e. page view).

Clear you user profile to defaults to resolve.

The CSS of the js based HTML5/CSS3 web page linked is simply not renderable,
and excess content/meta is filter import captured as comments. 

The Writer Web mode allows those spurious (to HTML 4.0) comments to be toggled
off--or better to simply delete in bulk from the HTML file.

Point is this is as good as it gets, and we have bug 95861 open to consider
work to make the Writer Web module HTML5 and CSS3 aware if not functional. With
some devs opining it would be better to drop the Writer Web module completely
and only filter import to Writer, and export to styled XHTML.
