Yes, I save the transaction to the removable media or at least I try to. But I don't think it gets signed because usually the suggested name to be saved is "signed..." but the suggested name is still "unsigned..." I hope that made sense.
When you load the unsigned transactions you see various input addresses. Are those input addresses present in your offline wallet? If they are not you should generate them:

This issue was fixed a while back... you don't need to generate addresses.
ok! it's all good!
appears to have resolved itself on its own.
after several more attempts using, strangely enough, the exact same addresses it just worked all of a sudden.
no idea why. suddenly the offline wallet offered me the option of broadcasting or saving the transaction, as it should have initially.
I restarted the computer twice, god knows, maybe a second time helped.
anyway, thanks to anyone who scratched their head about it!

1.9.8 when in offline mode does not tell you when you input an incorrect password, and just sits there.
You probably were typing your password incorrectly, then today you suddenly typed it correctly.
(maybe you had CAPS lock on or some other reason why your password was incorrect)
The way you can tell if a transaction is properly signed is the box on the very top of the transaction window.
If it says "unknown" that means you are unsigned. Once it is signed, it will show your transaction ID in that box "676aced6720..." etc.
So unless you see the transaction id, that means you got your password wrong.
If you're on Linux, I suggest running Electrum from Terminal. Open up Terminal, type in "electrum" and hit enter. It will launch Electrum, and the Terminal will display hidden error messages. (The incorrect password notice will appear in the Terminal)
