I frequently use this to view source code on pages i am
working on. For some reason it quit displaying the code
today. I tried downloading and installing a new ie6 but
no luck. Any suggestions?

This is usually fixed by emptying the Temporary Internet Files.

Also, if you have a shortcut to Notepad on your desktop rename it to Npad.

Some people have reported that Quick View Plus can cause this.

I'm having the same problems. I'm trying to view the
source code on any page and nothing happens. I can view
the source code in Netscape, but not IE. Any luck?

A. See

B. You may need new video drivers. Check the site for your video board
manufacturer. Meanwhile you can do the following:
1. Use the default mouse pointers.
2. Turn down your color depth. (Right click the desktop and choose
Properties | Appearance | Settings) Some people find that increasing color
depth helps.
3. Turn down your graphics hardware acceleration. (For Win 98, Start |
Settings | Control Panel | System | Performance | Graphics button) You will
see little, if any, performance degradation.
4. Turn off your desktop wallpaper.

If these make the problem go away you need new video drivers.

If you have an ATI video board, try adding these lines to System.ini

Win XP Pro; IE 6
View Source has stopped working form me too.
It was working sometimes, but has not at all lately.
I switched HTML editor setting to:
Visual Studio, MS Word, FrontPage, etc.
Nothing changed.
Thanks -Rich
