    i don't know how or if you can do this on a mac or in other browers, but if you're using microsoft internet explorer, got to "View" on the top menu bar, and then select "Source". it'll show you the HTML (all the code that goes into making the page look and behave the way it does).

    i don't claim to understand all of it, but it's pretty interesting to look at.

    Velly intelesting! Don't mean to offend anyone, but I find this amusing. I really don't care how it works, just that it does! When my computer goes bad, my life gets really crazy! :?

    My eyes glaze too at geeky computer talk. I expect it to work flawlessly every time.
