Why can't I view the source code of websites with IE6 ? The menu item is there but it doesn't do anything.
Just like to be nosy once in a while.

Plus some websites have the source code protected to prevent nosy parkers
(But I'm sure you know that already.)

I'm sure its my config - eg IanW said "its working here" which I assume means he can view the scoobynet source.
I CAN'T view source from Scoobynet - can anyone elese ?

Does it work on some site but not others?
I believe there is a problemn with viewing the source of non well formed XHTML documents.

There is no method of preventing someone from viewing the source code, so it's not that.

Going back to my original problem - I can't seem to 'view source' anywhere.
