Crm 2011 - Page is still "dirty" after manually saving

On my function I'm checking if there are any changes on the page, and if there are I'm saving them. However, even after saving Xrm.Page.data.entity.getIsDirty() is still true:

  var isPageDirty = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getIsDirty(); //true
  if (isPageDirty) { //Save if there were any changes
      Xrm.Page.data.entity.save();
  }
  isPageDirty = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getIsDirty(); //still true!

Why is this happening? Shouldn't isPageDirty change to false after saving?

The shortest way to tell which fields are dirty is to alert the entity data xml i.e. 

alert(Xrm.Page.data.entity.getDataXml())

There could be some other piece of script setting a value on that form. You can check what field/fields are causing this - by simply looping through the attributes, for example:

function showDirtyAttributes(){
    var names = "";
    Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.forEach(function (attribute, index) {
        if (attribute.getIsDirty()) {
            names += attribute.getName() + ";";
        }
    });
    alert(names);
}
