On a Mac/Safari, how do view source, then CTRL F ?

Post by simonmlewis »

I'm new to a Mac and the other evening I finally found out in Firefox how to View source. Couldn't do it in Safari.
But I wanted to CTRL + F (like windows) but couldnt' see it how to do it.

So if you get into Source, how to you find/search for a particular character int he code?
Love PHP. Love CSS. Love learning new tricks too.
All the best from the United Kingdom.

I suggest this site. This one looks like it might be relevant, though it is a few years old.

Once you're in the source I'm 99% positive that the same "find" shortcut used in every program will also be used there. Probably Command + F.

CMD + F in FF. In Safari, you need to enable the developer menu before you can view source (Preferences -> Advanced, bottom of page).

I'm pretty certain that it's Command + F.
