Document Not Available message on view source of a page, which i get for a POST
In FF 10, when i want to reload a page, which i got trought a POST request, i got a message: "This document is no longer available", instead of the message: "To display this page, %S must send information that will repeat any action (such as a search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier. Resend Cancel "
In FF 11, i only get the first message if i want to view the page source, so i can't view a page source which i got throught a POST request. In FF 13 it's the same.
Thanks for the help.

Does this affect all sites or only certain sites?
As a workaround, you could press Ctrl+A to select all of the page, then right-click and choose View Selection Source. This is not identical to the source sent by the server because it will include changes made by client-side scripts. However, it might allow you to access what you need until someone figures out a better solution.
With this ctrl + A and View Selection Source i can see the DOM source of the page, but what i need for work is the source i get from the server.
It appears on any site, which i got for a post request, because then the browser don't want to resend the data. But in previous versions, i can forced to do it, now there is no option.
This thread appears to be related: Receiving Document Not Available on Back Page - Fix?. Not sure whether any of the suggestions there are helpful with the View Source issue.
I've found that too, and tried out all of them, but nothing changed. :(
How about the old trick of browser.cache.check_doc_frequency = 0 (i.e., don't check cache expiration)? Maybe that doesn't work for your needs...
nope :( it's not about a cache problem. The problem is this: I want to resend the POST data, but the FF don't want, and don't ask me, just say: "i cannot show the page".
It was a problem when i pressed F5 or refreshed the page (in ff10), now it's fixed. But if i want to view source, it's still in ff13.
I hear what you're saying -- we should add that feature to the source viewer -- but did you test it anyway? If you can view the source without a roundtrip to the server, I think that would be preferable since the page might change on each submission.
