Here’s a quick list of the Firefox extensions I’m using all the time for web development:

  • DOM Inspector
  • IE View (One button to check the same page in IE)
  • ColorZilla (Lets you check colors on a web page)
  • MeasureIt (Lets you measure Elements on a web page)
  • URL Link (Follow a link even if it's not clickable)
  • JavaScript Debugger (well I don't actually use that much but maybe I should)
  • QuickJava (Allows quick enable and disable of Java & Javascript from the status bar
  • Yet Another Window Resizer

It is funny I recently did the same kind of list. I guess there are waves in the blogosphere …

It is true that some extensions have a longer learning curve, but generally they are really powerfull !
