There is a Firefox extension called "View Source With" <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/dafizilla-viewsourcewith/> Firefox, Seamonkey, Flock, Songbird and Netscape users can * open page source as DOM document, read faq * open CSS and JS files present on page * open images using your preferred image viewer (e.g. GIMP or ACDSee) * open PDF links with Acrobat Reader or Foxit Reader or what you prefer * edit textboxes content with your preferred editor and automatically see modified text on browser when you re-switch focus on it, this simplifies wiki pages editing, read faq * open server side pages that generate the browser content, this simplifies web developer's debug, read server faq * open files listed in Javascript console. When editor opens file the cursor can be moved to line number shown on javascript console, read js faq * For desperate cases Microsoft IE can be added to editor list. Works with: * SeaMonkey 2.0 - 2.1b2 * Thunderbird 2.0 - 3.3a2pre * Firefox 2.0 - 4.0.* Someone should tell Dafizilla about SeaMonkey 2.1 final.
