# HTML Editor is not displaying html code

 * HTML Editor is not displaying html code. I have 3 different wp sites and installations
   on the same server. Today when I logged in to each of them the HTML Editor is
   not showing the code. I can see the content in the Visual Editor and the site
   works fine but the HTML Editor does not work.
 * Any ideas as to how this can happen? I normally would think maybe a plugin caused
   this but nothing has changed and it happened to all 3 sites that are not connected
   in any way.
 * I need this fixed ASAP so I can edit the sites with HTML Editor. Any help would
   be greatly appreciated.

 * If I type in the HTML Editor it will change code but I can’t see it so it’s like
   the HTML Editor is just broken.

 * I should mention I just deactivated all plugins and upgraded to 3.4.1 and still
   have the same problem.

 * Problem resolved. It was browser issue. Switched to Safari and it was fine.

 * It could be a firefox caching issue. You may want to try flushing it forcefully.
