Can't view source on any page now.

[nice.guy.nige]

Is there a setting that prevents viewing of source on web pages
globally? I can't do it via right click or view menu either. I was
able to a couple of days ago, and I haven't installed anything since
then.

I'm guessing you're using IE. If so, empty the cache and it should work
again. It's a bug. (Who'd have thought it? MS software with an unfixed known
bug?)

Hope that help,
Nige

Yes, it is a special tag that only a handful of us know. It is one of
several undocumented tags that (in IE only) allows us to completely
control not only your browser, but also Note pad.

Thanks! That did it. I didn't realize that anything in the cache could
mess up your IE settings.

It's not what's in the cache, it's just IE that messes things up.

Thanks for all the feedback. It was the cache, afterall.
