crunched up html source?

Guest
i Download <!--more-->ed a webpage and when i view the source, it is all crunched up with funny characters in between.<br />
<br />
How can i restore the source into manageable and readable format without the funny characters??<br />
<br />
Hope someone can help?<br />
<br />
thanks<!--content-->what the **** do you mean? Give me a link. Their are scripts that will change the code so that it cannot be red and in asp.net their are just a bunch of numbers called view state but irregular characters? I have never seen it in an html document, this is html correct?<br />

Example:<br />
<br />
<link rel="stylesheet" href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"style.css" type="text/css"><br />
<br />
- this links to a style sheet that has the definitions for how certain elements appear<br />
<br />
So, when you Download <!--more--> a page you may not be getting the entire code and that's the reason you may not be viewing it as it is on the web.<br />

Havik<!--content-->Most of the time when you Download <!--more--> an HTML file from the Web without using the "File-Save As..." dialog, it "crunches" up the code and puts a square-like character where all of the spaces go. This is not a problem, and all code still works. But, if you're trying to get it to look "nice," you can try HTML Tidy Online (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://cgi.w3.org/cgi-bin/tidy">http://cgi.w3.org/cgi-bin/tidy</a><!-- m -->). (Note: The file must be uploaded to the Internet, because it has no "HTML Tidy from local disk" form.)<!--content-->Thank you very much Jona.<!--content-->Originally posted by PeOfEo <br />

targeting someone, what????!? I didnt know it crunched the code when you save, but I tried to save a swf and that did not go well, bunch of those boxes where a character cant be displayed. You think that is the same thing? I dono I though my plugin should be able to read a swf.<!--content-->
