Hey Petty, content scripts will run against "view-source:" URLs. You don't need to do anything special -- just specify the "http://*/*"; and "https://*/*"; match patterns, assuming those are the URLs you want. But getting the original HTML from "view-source:" pages won't be trivial because they're heavily marked up for syntax highlighting. Instead of relying on a page's corresponding "view-source:" page, you'd be better off running something like "document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0].innerHTML" on the page itself if possible.
