Ok I’m new at this so bear with me. When I try to see the html source on any web page, I cannot see it. I right click in a blank area to view source and nothing happens. I am just learning html and thought this would be a good way to see other sites.

@Paul_JrJan 28.2004 — I bet you're using IE, right? If so, you might find [URL=http://forums.webdeveloper.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=24395&highlight=Cant+view+source]this thread[/URL] helpful.

@joyporterauthorJan 28.2004 — I am using IE so I tried the advice from above and tried Mozilla. That seemed to work.

Thanks though. This has been a helpful forum.

@spufiJan 28.2004 — And if you are trying Mozilla, but just want the browser and not the mail client part of it, download Firebird.

Either way, download the Web Developer extension. View Source becomes one click away, and you get a boat load of other cool features.
