Post by jlynny28I want to learn the where I can view the page information at?
That would be WHAT page "information"?
Post by jlynny28In previous web browsers it was handy
Of IE, or some other web browser? You said "previous web browsers", not
"previous versions of IE".
Post by jlynny28and if you were building a web page you could check it
You still haven't said what "it" is. So why not use the same software to
view the page "information" that you used to build the web page?
Post by jlynny28to see if you put programed or wrote certain information correctly.
You asking on how to see the HTML code for a web page? What happens when
you right-click on the page and select View Source? Internet Options ->
Programs shows what HTML editor you elected as the default. Notepad is
usually the default.
Post by jlynny28It would let you see the keywords you assigned it and everything.
Well, that wouldn't be notepad. Guess you'll have to install that 3rd party
HTML editor that you were using before.
IE8 includes its Developer Tools utility to see the content of a web page.
This was NOT available in prior version. You have the View Source option
from the document's context menu but that merely load the page into whatever
you configured as the default HTML editor in Internet Options' under the
Programs tab. Windows doesn't come with a fancy color coding, automatically
indenting HTML editor, and that's why the default was Notepad (because HTML
is just text with tags). You were using some 3rd party HTML editor. Either
it isn't compatible with IE8 or you need to re-install it.
--- Posting Hints ---
ALWAYS REVIEW your message before submitting it. You want someone OTHER
than yourself to understand your post. Also remember that no one here is
looking over your shoulder to see at what you are pointing. If you don't
well explain your situation by providing the details that you already know,
don't expect others to know what is your situation. Explain YOUR computing
environment and just what actions you take to reproduce the problem.
Often you get just one chance per potential respondent to elicit a reply
from them. If they skip your post because you gave them nothing to go on
(no details, no versions, no OS, no context) then they will usually move on
to the next post and never return to yours.

When using a webnews-for-dummies interface, like Microsoft's Communities or
Google Groups or a forum-to-Usenet proxy, those are gateways to Usenet.
Despite the appearance of a forum, you are still participating in a
newsgroup (Usenet).
