If you have the Web Developer Extension you more aless can

Search Tuts for "Tidy Your Html/css In Firefox"

Thanks Donna
But i have the webdevelopers tool bar but no 3 boxes wen i view source

[Donna]

Strange, is your cache full?

[syndrome]

Cleared cache and history, still nothing.
Do you have to set it up to get the option of the three boxes ?

[Donna]

So when you go to View - Page Source , nothing at all is coming up?

Are you using the latest web developer tools? 0.9.3

Thanks for your help so far Donna

[Donna]

Can you post or message me the page your trying to view please so I can check it

[tiki]

Ya I dont get the three boxes either, just the source.
When I read your tutorial Donna, im like wtf how come i cant get it.

[Donna]

When you bring the source screen up that shows the html, click on tools in that window and make sure your html validator is ticked.

Mine is set to default btw

I have no idea why you both cannot bring this up we have no probs at all with it.

[pr0jekt]

are u talking about the HTML validator cos if u are ud prolly want to look for "HTML Tidy extension"

[syndrome]
