How do I "view source" in firefox 6

Since upgrading to Firefox 6 the option to "view source" is apparently no longer available (I used in in Firefox 5 only yesterday and am missing it already). Can it be made available please?

You can also go to Tools Menu -> Web Developer -> click View Page Source
Check and tell if its working.

  • How can I view PDFs wih Firefox?

    How can I view PDFs wih Firefox?  Just upgraded to Lion and doesn't work any more.  What Adobe product/version do I need? (Have Adobe Reader 10.1.3)

  • How can I view source on an app (preferably before installing)?

    An app for Firefox OS is programmed in HTML and JavaScript. So, just like a webpage, I should be able to View Source, right? That's always been the empowering Mozilla approach, as far as I understand. View Source is great for learning by example (just like how I originally learnt HTML!), but also for open audit. Ideally I'd like the opportunity to look over the code before I agree to install.
    If I go to https://marketplace.firefox.com/app/astroalpaca using my desktop browser, or if I find it in Marketplace using my ZTE Open, I can't see a View Source option anywhere. Where is it please?
    I can understand not showing it on a small phone screen, but there's no reason why someone visiting Marketplace with a laptop/desktop web browser shouldn't download and inspect the app package.
    If it doesn't exist (I'm starting to suspect this is the case), then where's my empowerment? What makes these fxos apps any less of an impenetrable consumer black box than android apps?

    Wow OK. So for future reference, "View Source" (Ctrl+u) doesn't do it, since I guess the button comes from JS. So instead you need to:
    * Open the inspector (Ctrl+shift+c)
    * Click on the install button (to inspect it, not to install it).
    * In the panel you get to see the source code for the button which includes the URL to the .webapp file (it might be hosted separately as in the example, or on the marketplace)
    * You can copy and paste that URL and then open that file to see where the app content is delivered from, and then if you follow those paths you can view the HTML, JS etc.
    So that's really quite buried, but I'm glad that at least it's technically possible! Not quite as easy as Ctrl-U ;)

  • View Source Crashes FIrefox

    Just purchased a brand new computer, Windows 8, latest version of Firefox, crashes everytime I try to "View Source". Has done this since I got the computer. Anyone know of any fixes? I use view source all day everyday.

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems#w_5-reinstall-firefox|here]].
    <b>WARNING:</b>Do not use a third party uninstaller as part of this process. Doing so could permanently delete your [[Profiles|Firefox profile]] data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u> See [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]. <!-- Starting in Firefox 31, the Firefox uninstaller no longer lets you remove user profile data.Ref: Bug 432017 and https://support.mozilla.org/kb/uninstall-firefox-from-your-computer/discuss/5279 [Fx31] Windows uninstaller will no longer offer the option to remove personal data -->
    Please report back to say if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • URGENT : Disable View Source in EP Pages/Iview

  • How can I view the Firefox "chrome" source in Firefox 4?

    I set up a userChrome.css file for myself about two years ago and I'm happy to say that '''most''' of it works fine in Firefox 4.
    I do need to tweak one item, but I can no longer see how to view the Firefox UI "source" in order to make the change.
    What command, tool or add-on do I need to use to view the Firefox 4 user interface "chrome" ? (i.e. HTML and CSS).
    I've already spent about 30 minutes searching to no avail; probably using the wrong keywords.

    You can open any chrome file in Firefox via the location bar, provided you know the path.<br />
    XML (XUL) files need a view-source: prefix.
    chrome://browser/skin/browser.css
    chrome://browser/content/browser.css

  • How can I edit an html file in Firefox using View Source?

    I have created an html webpage and saved it to my pc. I can't edit the html file in firefox when I right click on the page and select "View Source". I can view the code but I can't edit it. I can do this in IE9.
    I thought I was able to do this before in Firefox.
    Did my settings change somewhere that I can no longer do this?
    Do I have to have something checked in the Web Developer extensions for it to work?
    I'm using Firefox 24.0
    Thank you for any help with this. :)

    The View Source window in Firefox cannot be used to change computer codes. Nor can the Web Developer tools.
    Sorry for any inconvenience.
    I suggest using Programmer's Notepad.

  • How can I view the source code of chrome://browser/content/browser.xul?

  • Where is View Source? How can the source code of a website be viewed?

    Where is View Source? How can the source code of a website be viewed?

  • How can I view the Firefox Reading List?

    I am running Firefox on Android 2.3.4. I am reading about the Firefox "Reader Mode" [1], which states:
    "By tapping the readinglist1 icon, you can add the current page to your reading list (a special folder in your bookmarks list)"
    "Note: The reading list folder will not be shown until the first item is added to the list. If all the items in the list are removed, the reading list will be hidden again."
    Once I add the current page to my reading list, the screen changes and I am presented with different navigation controls. From here, the documentation says that:
    "By tapping the readinglist2 icon, you can display the reading list. "
    I have several items in my Reading List. However, I can only see the 'readinglist2' icon when I am viewing a page which has been converted to the Reader Mode. If I browse my bookmarks I do not see a folder for the reading list.
    How can I view the items which I added to my "Reading List"?

  • How do I view an email message source

    How do I view an email message source? Someone sent me an email showing my email as the sender. If I try to block the sender I am afraid I will be blocking myself. I am also afraid that whoever sent that email will send to all of the email addresses in my address book. the people I know will think that the email came from me when it came from someone using my address I.D. How or what should I do?

    Could you check your actual Firefox version here:
    Help > About Firefox
    The forum recorded version 10, which is obsolete and insecure, so if that is correct, you should update ASAP. If there is something holding you back from updating, what is it? There may be a solution.
    If you do have the current version of Firefox, this article might help: [[Websites say that Firefox is outdated or incompatible even though it's the latest version]].

  • I'm having problems opening various windows in Firefox. Eg. Downloads, View Source, History etc.

    For quite some time I have been having some issues with Firefox 5.0.1.
    I have been through all of the troubleshooting I can find but cannot fix the problem.
    Most of the features that require a window to be opened in Firefox do not work. Eg. Downloads, View Source, History. I cannot see the windows.

    I tried the localstore.rdf replacement from another machine running the same version of Firefox. Still didn't fix the issue.
    I noticed on the machine that I was having the issue with there was a file present called localstore-safe.rdf, this file was not present on the machine where Firefox was functioning normally. I removed localstore-safe.rdf (made a copy of the profiles folder first) and it works.

  • JimP: Setting srcview in View Source -- how?

    Gentlepersons,
    I'm reposting this question because my previous posting on this topic had an error in it that made responding difficult.  My bad.
    Run this tiny Flex app (which does absolutely nothing of interest):
         http://www.igetitmusic.com/blog/SWFs/Tweener/Tweener.swf
    ...and then select its "View Source" menu item (by right-clicking or command-clicking on it). Up comes the source code, which is in
         http://www.igetitmusic.com/blog/SWFs/Tweener/srcview/index.html
    Coolness!
    The same applet is embedded at the bottom of a blog posting here:
         http://www.igetitmusic.com/blog/2009/05/shape-of-frustration.html
    ... by embedding a link to exactly the same SWF as above (that is, to http://www.igetitmusic.com/blog/SWFs/Tweener/Tweener.swf).
    Now, select the "View Source" menu item in the BLOG's reference to the applet.
    Whoa, Nellie!  It doesn't work!  It looks for the source code in the wrong place: http://www.igetitmusic.com/blog/2009/05/srcview/index.html.
    Where did that path name come from?
    What algorithm is the View Source menu item using to generate the path name to its source code?
    How can I override this algorithm's behavior so that embedding [swfpath]/foo.swf into [whatever]/aPage.html will cause the View Source menu item of that object look for its source at [swfpath]/srcview/index.html, not [whatever]/srcview/index.html?
    Respectfully, and with sincere appreciation for any help, I am

    P.S.: PLEASE DO NOT tell me that "you can generate source by checking the "View Source" checkbox in the "Export Release Build..." dialog. Clearly (this is clear, isn't it?), the problem isn't generating the source, it is finding the source at runtime.

    Gentlepersons,
    This turns out to be a known bug in Flex 3, which has been fixed in Flex 4 (which is still in development).
    In the meantime, the workaround is to expose, in the web page in which a SWF is embedded, a separate link to that SWF's source code (labelled something like "click here for source code").
    Hoping that this helps, I remain
