Default What controls the source visibility?

One thing I occasionally find really annoying about IE6 is, that for
some sites (usually https-sites) the View = Source command is disabled.
Why is this so? Who/what controls a website's source visibility in IE6?

Michael

Because the site maker put code in to stop you from seeing it.
Sometimes you can get around this by putting the site in the Restricted
Zone.

Please post IE6 questions to
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...er.ie6.browser

Since you have WinXP SP2 you will want this update:
There are two articles, KB918766 and KB918651, but the latter is not
currently available. The download link is
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en

It places the backup in Recycled, overwriting any earlier backup of the
sane folder(s). To use it, copy it to the store folder, delete the one you
want to replace and then rename the BAK file to DBX. (It's a bit more
complicated if the messed up DBX file isn't there or contains messages that
are new that you want to keep.

Or just disable scripting. Or save the page and then open it in Notepad.
