Web Designer Firefox Add-ons by eckert


If you design websites, these will make your life so much easier.

First, use Firefox (download here).

Next, check out these add-ons.

ColorZilla - let’s you pick out any color on a webpage and save it’s RGB or HTML color value.

Web Developer’s Toolbar - this thing has saved many a day with it’s ruler, div selector and other great features.

Firebug - I don’t know how I survived without this. Offers real-time in-browser editing to any websites HTML, CSS and Javascript.

Screengrab! - Hands down, the best screen shooting program I’ve found to-date. You can save or copy the whole webpage, the visible portion, your own selection or the window.

IE View - face it, IE is a pain that has no standards. After using a standards-compliant browser to design and develop your site, use this plugin with a simple right-click option to view any page in IE. Then enjoy fixing all of it’s errors.

    I do fully agree: Firebug is essential and life-saving for me, too. - I also like to use “NoScript” to simulate non-Js-enabled browsing with one single klick. “HTML Validator” is also a favorite of mine, cause I like to read sth like: “0 Errors / 0 Warnungs” direcly in my status bar at the end of the day :-)
