VIEW SOURCE CODE ON AN IPAD

To view source code on an iPad or IOS mobile device, there are two methods. The quick one is to download the App. The second and decidedly geekier of the two methods is to set up a button on your iPad as follows.

Open your Safari and bookmark the page you are reading by clicking on the bookmark button. Instead of the page name, name it ‘View Source’ and tap ‘Save’.
Open this link and copy the script.
Tap the Safari bookmark icon again, followed by ‘Edit’
Select the ‘View Source’ bookmark you created in above.
Paste script you copied in step 2 into the URL bar and tap ‘Done’.
You now have bookmark called ‘View Source’. To view the source code of any webpage on your IOS device, open any site in Safari and select Bookmarks/ ‘View Source’.
