(Toolkit :: View Source, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

At http://weavingrainbow.com, the index page is a frames page, dividing the
screen into two frames, left and main.  An attempt to view the source html of
either the page loaded in the left frame or the main frame results in the source
html of the index page (index.html) being shown instead.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Access http://weavingrainbow.com (optional:  choose a new weavingrainbow.com
page via the menu)
2.  Right click within either frame
3.  Select "View Page Source" from popup menu

Actual Results:  
html source of the index page is displayed

Expected Results:  
html source of the page within that frame should be displayed.

This occurs with both the default theme and the "Littlefox 0.10" theme.  The
"Adblock v.5 d2" extension is running, as well.

"View Page Info" is similarly affected; e.g., it shows the info of the index
page, not the page within the frame.

Aren't the frame-specific commands on the 'This Frame' submenu, above the main
page's 'View Page Source' item?

Yes, they are.

Reporter, as you've described this bug, you're simply selecting the wrong view
source command.  Look in the This Frame submenu.
