Default OT - not able to view source code in IE 6 - 06-26-2004 , 10:00 PM






Anybody have any idea why I might not be able to view source code online?

I'm using IE 6 with Win 2K Pro. I used to be able to. Something must have
changed somewhere.

Many thanks in advance.

Steve

clean out your browser cache, that can sometimes stop you from viewing
source. (It happened to me last week)

Another possibility...if you have a shortcut on your desktop for "Notebook",
this can also cause you to be unable to view the source code. This happened
to me and drove me crazy for several days before I determined the cause was
the shortcut on my desktop for "Notebook". Weird, but that was the cause.
Just something to check.

Don't have one for "Notebook", but have alot of others. I'd hate to have to
delete them all.

How did you find the culprit?

Hi Steve,
It was weird that having a desktop shortcut for "Notebook" caused the
problem. After trying to delete the cache, try to view the source in other
browsers, etc., and still not resolving the problem, I just started doing
in-depth searches into any possible cause. I finally came across an article
that mentioned that a desktop shortcut for "Notebook" could prevent browsers
from viewing source code. Granted it was after several days of pulling my
hair out. I removed the shortcut and viola...source code was viewable
again.

Crazy???
