It would be a pretty trivial exercise to accomplish this. Just create a module that adds a "View source" tab to the node. Then for that tabs content simply render the output of node_view($node) into a textarea. Boom! Quick and easy "view node source". ----- Adam A.

I am wondering if anyone knows whether there is a module that provides viewing source code of nodes in Drupal as Wikipedia's view source.
The source of a drupal node is derived from the "body" of the node, its associated "field output" and any other modules that care to hook into the rendering of the node upon display. As such there isn't really a "view source" as the process for rendering each node content type is unique and determined by the developer who implemented the node type. This is also what makes drupal a powerful multipurpose tool (i.e. not just encyclopedia articles). Your best bet is to research drupal theming and fields. The $node->content variable might be of assistance on D6 and $content on D7. Good luck. -mf
