Help!! "View" "Source" "Code"
I am a self taught web designer with HTML - very basic. After creating the pages I save them as a web page .html in a folder on my desktop. When changing I just click on view source in the upper toolbar to correct or make changes to the page. My "View" "Source" will not open any page to the source code. I have tried using on a variety of online sites also. It is just not working. Could my children have done something. I have been away for 3 weeks and I just don't know where to begin to try to fix this. NO window even opens. What on earth could have happened? I have resorted to going on a different computer, viewing my web pages with the "view - source" and then e-mailing the codes to myself.

Thanks for the prompt answer. I emptied my temp files and still no View Source. I called my son at college and he suggested notepad may have been deleted therefore the files wouldn't open. Not the case either. I was able to open directly through notepad, so thank you for that tip. My son suggested to browse with Netscape or even better download OPERA which is what he uses. I already have Netscape on my computer and I opened the webpages that way and was able to view source. Very strange. I just automatically use IE maybe I should get used to using a different browser.

See if clearing your temporary Internet files (Tools|Internet Options|General tab, click "Delete files") restores your view source capability. If it does not, in the interime you can open HTML files in Notepad, make changes, then save from there.
