View Source not working in IE7

Jan 27

Today I ran into a problem with IE7 where I could view the source of a webpage. It was not working when I would right click the page > View Source, or by going to Page > View Source.

After doing a couple of google searches, it turns out you have to delete your cache by going to Tools > Delete Browsing History > Delete All. You must then refresh your page in order to view the source. I really didn’t spend much time researching how or why this happens, but hopefully this will save someone a few minutes and a headache.

Yet another reason to stay as far away from this browser as possible…
