View Rendered Source Chart (Firefox Extension)

Viewing the source code for a website is a great way to see what makes a webpage tick. The downside is that all the black on white text often gets jumbled together making it hard to differentiate between tags. The View Rendered Source Chart extension (Firefox / Flock) creates an additional right-click contextual menu item which provides a color coded chart of the page source code. Firefox users can download a copy from here. A Flock friendly version can be found here.


Hrm, I’m not seeing a Flock version on that page?
Flock version has been updated. I was napping! Ahh, I love Sundays. Sorry for the delay in hosting the file.
