Amanda, if the registry hack doesn't work, you might want to get an html text editor like Arachnophilia (http://www.arachnoid.com). In the 4.0 version it adds itself to the choice of drop down list of editing tool choices both in the "Internet Options" and the editing icon on the menu bar (usually to the right of the printer icon). I've not used the 5.0 version so I don't know if it does as well.

Dear List, A while ago, my IE 5 install lost the ability to view source; I've just upgraded to IE 6, and it still hasn't come back. I *have tried* a number of fixes (see below) but none of them has worked ... I still get the same reaction, which is that NOTHING happens (notepad doesn't open, there is no error message, just *nothing*). If anyone knows of *other* possible ways to get my "view source" capability back, I'd be *really, really* grateful to hear them. I feel crippled without it! I have already tried (without any luck): * emptying my temporary internet files * checking that notepad.exe is installed in c:\windows, where it is expected * running IE's repair functionality * checking that IE's html editor is set to notepad * checking that the TMP environmental variable is set to a directory that actually exists Any help greatly appreciated ..
