When I copy some text content from a website, I would assume the content is stored as html in clipboard since it tends to keep formats. And those htmls are different from the ones in page source (browsers may have appropriately edited a bit. E.g. browsers may inline the external referenced css in the web clip)
Is there a way to see what exactly those htmls are, in raw/un-rendered format?
I would like simple approaches in Ubuntu as well as in Windows.

Most browsers won't copy the html code in the case you describe. – Ramhound – 2014-06-19T15:33:03.203
If you paste into a text editor, no formatting is copied, but somehow formatting is retained when you paste into an office program: if you save it and examine the file you will see the office formatting, not what came from the clip-board. No idea how this works, but I'm as curious about the answer as you are. I hope someone can enlighten us. – AFH – 2014-06-19T16:17:11.597
