Browser View Source -> save source via .ahk
« on: September 25, 2007, 12:46 AM »
from an .ahk script, how do I save the 'source' for a displayed IE or FireFox page to a file?

I didn't want to rely on .ahk moving the cursor to the 'file' menu, 'save source' etc.

Thank you

Conquer

with Firefox, you can use this add-on called ViewSourceWith to view the source via a hot-key.

Thanks for the link.

I did the FF add on which causes FF to do what IE6 does.....view source ctrl+shift+U

That brings up a new window with the source in it.
