Do you mean you want to view the output html of a php page from another server? Or you want to read the PHP contents of a file from another server?

Not fully sure I understand - is the 'view->Page Source' option in Firefox (install if you dont have it - its miles better than IE!) what you are looking for here?

I'd also load the Web Development Tools with Firefox - these let you view a whole lot of HTML info on the page and do things like edit CSS files 'on the fly' even on others web sites (it's just a local cache, but is kind of cool for viewing Microsoft.com in sky blue pink!). You can also view the POST and GET info being published to web sites, which is quite useful.
