View- source problems

[Master Plvmber]

Why, when I click view, then source, does nothing happen? Is this a common
problem in XP? I need to check out some HTML codes.

I don't think this is a common problem. I can view the source code in IE
with View/Source and in Netscape with View/Page Source.

Nicholas has posted a solution for when this problem occurs with IE.

BTW, if you are trying to view the source because you would like to use
something it does in your own code, I'd recommend using the Netscape
View/Page Source. The Netscape builtin HTML editor will use color on the
code to make elements much easier to find than if you view the source in
Notepad. Or you can copy the code from Notepad and paste it into an HTML
aware editor, like Crimson Editor of AceHTML5. Crimson is freeware, and
Ace comes in a freeware version.
