Toggle Syntax Highlighting When Viewing Source

SUMMARY: When viewing HTML source code, prevent Mozilla Firefox from coloring the text.

When viewing the source code of webpages in Mozilla Firefox ("View" - "Page Source"), you may notice that the text is colored to highlight HTML tags and attributes. If you find this automatic coloring irritating, uncheck "View" - "Syntax Highlighting" in the "view-source:" window to turn it off.
