View Page Source disabled only in IE.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

View source is disabled in IE and not FireFox.  I would recommend enabling
it as it is a very useful tool for troubleshooting.  If you think it should
be disabled, then just disabling it in IE does not seem to serve the
purpose of not letting people see it.

It has not been disabled. I can view it here with IE6?

It looks like it is in the sections and handler pages Check those.

This text is copied from another site:

Temporary Files Full
When the Internet Explorer disk cache becomes full it may stop the View Source
function from working. To resolve, open Internet Explorer and click "Tools" >
"Internet Options" > "Delete Files".

Missing Notepad.exe
The View Source function uses Notepad to display the HTML, if "notepad.exe" is
missing from the Windows directory then it will not work. To resolve, ensure a 
copy
of Notepad.exe is in the Windows directory. (From ME - I've also seen this if 
there
is a shortcut to Notepad on the desktop).

Cookie Folder Location
This issue can also occur if your Cookies folder is located on an NTFS 
partition and
you do not have at least Change permissions for the Cookies folder. To resolve, 
make
sure your account has sufficient permissions on the Cookies folder.

View Source Restriction
The View Source function may have been restricted by your Administrator. To 
resolve,
see the "NoViewSource" registry value in Internet Explorer Restrictions.

Invalid Temporary Directory
You may also receive this error if the path specified for the TMP environment
variable is invalid. To resolve, make sure that the TEMP directory is a valid
directory and that there is sufficient space on the drive.

Invalid View Source Program
If you have specified an alternate program to view the source code (see Use an
Alternate Source Viewer with Internet Explorer). To resolve, make sure that the
alternate viewer is valid and operational.

Right-click disabled by Web Page
Some web pages may implement a restriction to stop visitors from right-clicking 
on
the web page. The source may still be viewed by clicking the main "View" menu, 
then
"Source".

Those would affect every site I visit, right?  This only affects OBBLM.  I'll 
see
what others get.

I'm blank on this... don't know what's causing it.

It has something to do with the header output...

Not exactly sure yet, but it does:)

To add on to this:

http://ate.stuntyleeg.com/ and http://ate.stuntyleeg.com/index.php work

http://ate.stuntyleeg.com/index.php?section=main does not work.

Well, the page body and header are the same for those three URLs, so it must be 
IE
not supporting viewing the page source when a GET string is in the URL.

I don't think it is the get as other pages work.  Any difference at all with 
the 
section part?  Does it do the session start like is suggested in the php.net 
bugs 
page?

I will see if there is any configuration in apache that may help as well, as I 
have 
read that a config in IIS can do something.  Probably end up closing this 
thread as 
nothing can be done.

As I said above all three pages you link to above are generated the same way.

session_start() is called as one of the first things on all pages before 
anything else.

Well IE8 works with all of the pages except for my BOTOCS XML output.  Let's 
leave 
this open for a little bit to see if I can do anything differently.

Maybe the IE buffer for "source code view" is filled?
