Other extensions

Other extensions that also can open page source in tab:

• Open Source in Tab by Martin Gehrke.
  Adds a menuitem on the context menu to view the page source in tab. It has an option to open in current tab or a new tab.
• Web Developer by Chris Pederick.
  Open Web Developer Options, General, and check the View source in a tab instead of a window (the source is not loaded from the cache).
• MenuX by Mark Bokil.
  Customize the toolbar and drag the View Source button.
• View Source Choice by Brian King.
  Only handles the view-source: protocol.
  Type view-source: and the page URL on location bar.
  Example: view-source:http://foo.com/bar.html

One thing that four extensions above are unable to do is viewing a frame source, unless you open the frame in a tab first.

Update:
The new Web Developer version 1.0 now can view frame source.

If you know other extensions that also can view page source in a tab, please let me know. I’ll post the links here.
