Hello all,

I am using IE6 in Windows 2000 Professional. Whenever I
click on View - Source nothing happens. I can't seem to
see the source code for the page, any page. Can you help?

Thank you

Geoff,
First, clear the IE cache. IE> Tools> Internet Options> General> Delete
files (and delete offline content.) It's often recommended that the TIF
folder be kept at about 50 MB (Settings.)

If you have a shortcut to Notepad.exe on the desktop, rename it.

I suffered from that on and off the last 2 years, never
would have believed it until just now after trying it for
myself.

Just deleted any graphics files that were in my temporary
internet files folder, and voila, view source is back,
thanks for having the same problem as I did.
