Mozilla used to provide a fantastic little tool called X-Ray Goggles that let you modify the code and view behind any website. Regrettably, they shut it down a number of years ago and ever since Ive been recommending that individuals merely
usage Chromes check tool to see the code behind a website. In fact, I even included that in
my weekly newsletter this week. This week I discovered that
Mouse.org uses its own
X-Ray Goggles tool for modifying the code and seeing behind a page..

Mouse.orgs X-Ray Goggles tool lets you see the code behind any web page and modification that code to display anything that you desire in place of the initial text and images. After you have made the changes you can release a local copy of the websites. In this short video I provide a presentation of how Mouse.orgs X-Ray Goggles tool works..

As I discussed in the video, you might use X-Ray Goggles to alter an article on the internet to make it a satire story. Print the page and offer it to your students to try to recognize the satire elements of the story.

Applications for Education.
Mouse.orgs X-Ray Goggles offers an excellent method for trainees to see how the code of a webpage works.
