I'd like to view web pages as text only on occasion, without images or fancy css backgrounds appearing. Are there any Mozilla or IE plugins that allow this? I've used Readability, and it's not bad but it still downloads pictures.

Just wondering what's out there. Thanks!

How about Lynx ?

In Opera, the View bar allows you to switch between Author mode and User mode. In user mode, you can choose which "fancy" elements you want to use or not (the default being a basic text mode).

You can also choose to not retrieve images at all, or use images from the cache only, in the same bar.

There are several text only browsers which are still actively used.

Examples:

  • W3m
  • Lynx
  • links
