"View Source" works just fine in Mozilla

IE diehards can try this in the address line:

view-source:http://www.xmlspy.com/features_schema.html

I think it's just a bug in IE. Before I redesigned my site, I couldn't view source of it, I didn't add any no right click codes or whatever. There's a few sites that do that. Sometime view-source:http://addy.com works, sometimes it doesn't.

I right clicked and viewed source in IE6:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html><head><title>

That is the first little bit of the code. The code is pretty garbled up which could account for why IE sometimes does not want to view it plus the fact of the xml tag in the beginning. All of the source code doesn't even show up in notepad. It gets cut off after a bit.

Go to one of the pages where you think you can't view source and then refresh the page a few times and try it again. I didn't work the first time for me so I refreshed the page a few times and it worked. I've experience the same phenomenon on other sites that were not trying to protect their source.
