View the source code of a page as it is at the moment you look at it.
➤ View the source code of dynamically generated pages.
➤ View the source code that is embedded in the page.
➤ View the source code the way you want.

To view the page's source code, either:
➤ Right-click and select "view current source" from the context menu.
➤ Use the keyboard shortcut (CTRL+Shift+U).

As with "View page source", you can search the source code with "CTRL+F" to find the code section that you're looking for.

Mike Cooper 2021-09-25: I have been using this at my work for several years. This is a great tool if you are doing ajax calls (or whatever) and the page changes but doesn't refresh updating the underlying source html code. Surprised it's not used more and better reviewed b/c it is a great tool. Maybe this can be done from the developer tools and that is why. Anyway highly recommend. If there is something better or a better easier way I'd love to hear about it.

theefunk 2019-09-05: BLANK PAGE ERROR, for those that first installed this, make sure to refresh the page that you are checking first then try running the program. Any website that was opened before installing this extension needs to be refreshed.

Emirhan Marlalı 2016-10-14: This is very good. But we need line numbers and it doesn't show frame source.
Bill Botkovich 2016-08-08: If you're getting a blank page... goto your Chrome settings and play around with the "allow plug-ins?" values. I choose to allow all important plugins, and finally got this extension to start working... beautifully!

Fred McIntyre 2015-08-28: This does not show the line numbers, which is essential in debugging from messages on the console about errors on a particular line number.

Leonso Medina 2015-03-25: IT DOES WORK! For all of you that get a blank page all you have to do is to restart chrome, if on windows make sure you go to the tray icon for chrome right click -> exit, if on MAC make sure you right click chrome on dock and click Quit.

Jonathan Sage 2014-10-10: Does exactly what you'd expect. I've used this in Ubuntu 12.04, 12.10, and Mint 17 (Ubuntu 14.04) with no problems.

Radim Novotny 2012-04-23: Finally found something what just not switch to view-source: mode. I'd like to set font style (or use the Chrome default one) and update the new line handling which is much more important than font style for me. I think single tag including the tag attributes on one line would be fantastic.

Dmitry Sh 2012-01-17: Looks like what I needed. But I would like to set font style and font size for the output. Also, I've found that indentation with spaces for JavaScript is broken.
