Firefox allows refresh in source view
Now and then, mainly when im creating huge forms I get CF to generate HTML.
The process is usually simple
- Write code
- Switch to browser
- Run page
- View source
- See some formatting issue
- Close source view
- Go back to editor
- Ammend code, then go through steps 2 onwards
But Firefox actually helps your here. Once you have viewed the source you can actually just hit F5 to refresh the view/code. Savin just a little bit of your sanity in the process.

Great tip - thanks! For any other Mac newbies like myself who hadn't yet figured it out, the equivalent appears to be Function-F5 on a Mac.
I spent at least a minute increasing the volume on my iTunes song before figuring this out :-<

You can turn F key control via the System Preferences, which I found make life easy. Also if you do do that it makes using the Expose keys (F9-F12) very handy (thats if you havent found them already it took me a week too).
Thanks - you just saved me a bunch of time. And I'd been WONDERING how people did all that cool Expose stuff, but hadn't had the time to try to figure it out. Sorted now!
Best Wishes,
