An excellent web tool for those using Internet Explorer is the View Partial Source utility.

For those of you who want to repost an article in the original format, this is a real time saver. You highlight the desired area, right-click, and then choose View Partial Source. You see only the source code for the part you want to copy. No more slogging through lines and lines of HTML to find the source code you need. I use this method to post the Astronomy Picture of the Day at FR.

HERE IT IS.

Click on the download link, upper right. I know it says IE 5.x only, but I use it with IE 6. No problem.

Yes, VPS is great. I use it with IE 5.5. Quite a while back, I was introduced to the VPS tool/upgrade and found it was a big help, as you say. Then, I decided to upgrade my IE to 6.0. When I did that, the VPS upgrade was non-functional and I was perplexed to find out that I couldn't load in the webaccessdev (or whatever it is). I was told it doesn't work with IE 6.0 when I tried the upgrade. I wonder what the deal with that was? Seems to me that when you upgrade to IE 6.0, you should be able to load the VPS upgrade, but it wouldn't let me.

Recently I had my hard drive go out and so now I have IE 5.5 again and the VPS is funtional upon taking the upgrade pack. I'm afraid if I would upgrade to IE 6.0 again, I would lose the VPS again.

Hmm? (Thinkin' out loud here).....And, besides, I really don't recall what the difference really was between the IE 5.5 and 6.0 anyway. Is there some stuff with IE 6.0 you can do that I can't with IE 5.5???.......
