The '''view-source''' URI scheme is used by some browsers to construct [[Uniform Resource Locator|URLs]] that refer to a source display for a given resource.

For example, this [[Uniform Resource Locator|URL]] would show the source of the page located at [http://www.example.com http://www.example.com]:

'''<nowiki>view-source:http://www.example.com</nowiki>'''

== Browser Support ==

[[Mozilla Firefox]] and [[Internet Explorer]] both supported the scheme, but support was dropped from Internet Explorer in [[Windows XP]] SP2 due to security problems.<ref>{{cite web
