View Source FireFox/Mozilla

[Itshim]

I maybe a little slow on the uptake, but I just happened to notice that when viewing source code within FireFox you can press Ctrl-R (on Windows) or Click View->Reload from the menu bar and it FireFox will reload the source code without refreshing the original window (tab).

Since I discovered this little gem I find it extremely helpful when coding.

This also works in Mozilla, but does not work in IE/AOL, Netscape 7/8 or Opera 8.

Hoping this is not common knowledge...

Hi

Thanks, for sharing it with us. I knew that old Mozilla does not have a refresh in the view source windows and never looked for it in newer ones.

In the veiw source window, the "View" menu has a "Reload" option in it. There are other options, too, and the keypresses for all of them can be found next to the relevant menu items.
