Using ie5.5 - Suddenly "view source" has stopped working. When I select it, nothing happens...no error codes or anything. I've rebooted several times, closed everything else, tried it on a million different pages...Anyone have any ideas on why this would happen?

Try clearing your cache. No good reason I can think of for this to happen. Tools/Internet Options/Temporary Internet Files/Delete Files

Make sure the path to Notepad or your favorite editor is set correctly on the Programs tab under Tools/Internet Options in IE.

This happened to me as well and clearing the cache solved my problem.

Thank you so much! Clearing the cache was the trick. It must have taken 5 minutes for all the junk to delete. Thank you again! -Joy

Thank you! It has been driving me nuts. I use it so much when developing in scripting languages to see the rendered code. I resorted to using Netscape for a while. ugh.
