  • Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar

    I just came across this toolbar, thanks to the guys at Sitepoint:

    IE Dev Toolbar

    The Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar provides several features for exploring and understanding Web pages. These features enable you to:

    -- Explore and modify the document object model (DOM) of a Web page.
    -- Locate and select specific elements on a Web page through a variety of techniques.
    -- Selectively disable Internet Explorer settings.
    -- View HTML object class names, ID's, and details such as link paths, tab index values, and access keys.
    -- Outline tables, table cells, images, or selected tags.
    -- Validate HTML, CSS, WAI, and RSS Web feed links.
    -- Display image dimensions, file sizes, path information, and alternate (ALT) text.
    -- Immediately resize the browser window to a new resolution.
    -- Selectively clear the browser cache and saved cookies. Choose from all objects or those associated with a given domain.
    -- Choose direct links to W3C specification references, the Internet Explorer team weblog (blog), and other resources.
    -- Display a fully featured design ruler to help accurately align and measure objects on your pages.

    The Developer Toolbar can be pinned to the Internet Explorer browser window or floated separately.

    This Beta 2 version of the toolbar contains functionality and stability enhancements over previous versions and includes the following improvements.

    -- You can now selectively enable and disable CSS parsing.
    -- The Misc menu contains a color picker.
    -- Several link reports are available.
    -- When you select an element in the DOM element tree list, the selected element scrolls into view if it is not already visible in the browser window.


    I've installed and had a quick play and it looks really useful for development for IE.

    Sitepoint mentioned something simillar for Firefoz users, so you can be happy too

    There has been a Firefox web developer toolbar for a couple/few years now. Used it extensively when I was still using that browser.

    You know, and not to knock the availability of this toolbar, but I find it amusing that such a toolbar exists for IE given its very lack of support for some of the features in particular areas. Still, good find.
