frontpage, etc always chops up the source when importing it. What is the best free way to view a websites/weboage source?

ruight click and view source chops it up as much as importing it through frontpage or other means does.

First, go out and buy a p5 12.6Ghz computer with 36 gigs of ram and five 10 terabyte hard drives.

Then install Windows Quantum Holography Level 6 edition with service pack 38.

While installing, make sure that it has Notepad checked off.

That should do it for ya

So load it into your html editor and strip tabs or leading or trailing spaces. Lots of editors have a "beautify" option as well, which will do auto-indents with tabs or spaces to your specs.

Sounds like you need a better editor, not a better way to view source..

But if you want another option, go to File, then Save as..

define how notepad "chops up" source code? If it was written sloppily it will view source as sloppy! I'd imagine everyone here uses notepad on a regular basis to view code.... i guess i don't get what you're wanting?

I would upgrade to a 20.4 Ghz processor.

36 gigs of RAM is enough for the average person.. but I run 15800 programs at the same time so I go with 72 gigs of RAM

Cant beat Windows Quantum Holography Level 6 edition though..

Well, I was scaling down the specs to save money if all he was planning on doing was viewing source with it. I mean, with a machine like that, what more could it really do other than display text?
