Chosen solution

There are several ways to view the page source:

1. Rightclick on anywhere -> "View page source"

2. Press the Hotkey [Ctrl] + [U]

3. write "view-source:" infront of your url (e.g. view-source:https://google.com)

You can also use the Firefox developementtool "Inspector" by pressing [F12]

Many greets

Thx for answering.

view-source does the thing.

None of the others actually gives the sourcecode - some give Firebugs version of it [F12], and some give a version that is no longer valid - f.eks. after logging in, you get the code of the login page..
