# View Source Blocked?

 * For some reason I am unable to “view source” in my blog. I have tried both through
   right click functions and through the browser menu. Could someone please take
   a look at my site and tell me what could be causing this so I can correct it?
   Thank you in advance for any assistance.

 * My apologies. It must have been a fluke. I had 3 different individuals report
   that they could not view the source. I also was unable to view the source. Now
   it is working again. I can’t imagine what caused the flux.

 * The inability to view the source code seems to only crop up in IE. I never seem
   to have a problem in Firefox. Perhaps that’s what happened! No matter. Problem
   solved!

 * Slowly but surely I am losing my faith in IE … ; – )

 * I hear you! Too bad so many people still use it, but what with all the security
   issues it’s fraught with, people are jumping over to Firefox in droves. They 
   put up with it when it was just a bad browser. Now that it’s a dangerous browser
   too. . . . Maybe people are smarter than I’ve been giving them credit for, at
   least some of ’em!

 * I’m getting this too.
    What’s more, when I type Chinese characters on an entry,
   they do not appear correctly when I can’t view source. I believe that some of
   the time, the PHP doesn’t finish it’s processing, and the browser is indefinitely
   waiting for some kind of closure. When I hit “refresh” my Chinese looks fine 
   and I can view source. Is there a PHP tag I can use to end this foolishness?

 * I think I solved this problem by adding
    `<?php flush(); ?>` in the last line
   of index.php. Sometimes I still can’t view the source, but at least the chinese(
   which comes before the flush) is displaying properly.
