Report, edit, etc...Posted by Mp)7-7 on 2006-09-22 at 12:19:44
Know how when you view page source in Internet Explorer and the code for that page appears in a txt document on Notepad so you can edit it. With firefox you do the smae thing but it is in color and really easy to read but you cant edit it. Does anyone know how you can view the page from firefox in color but also edit it too?

Just copy it to another place, and edit it there, i personally prefer(if i'm in Windows, ugh) Notepad++(it has also hss Syntax highlighting, which you called "in color"), but you can copy it to common notepad or whereever too. If there's any way to edit source code directly without copying, it isn't something i know of(neither that i need)... may be some extension that works like a builtin editor?

Yes I know I can select all copy, but when I open it in Notepad it will just take the color out, is their anyway that I can edit and have color all in one?

I told you, search for an extension (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/extensions/)

Or get Notepad++ (http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/es/site.htm)

Edit: It seems you can use this extension to use Notepad++(it has colors) with "view source":

Oh, Sorry I forgot to close this because I already found it. Thanks for the help though. I was the first one to find it so I get extra credit in my computer class now. Yippy!
