Here is a quick list of my top Firefox extensions
Web Devloper toolbar
Essential for anyone who works on websites. My favourite features are
- View Style Information
Very handy for editing CSS templates. You can pick the element you want to alter, and the extension will show you it’s properties and where to find it in the CSS files. - View Form Information
Shows the details of a form, hidden fields, submit url etc. - Clear Domain Cookies
Very handy for testing sites that ask you to log in. You can easily kill all related cookies and appear like an anonymous user.
ColorZilla
See a colour on a website you like, colorzilla gives you a handy picker that will give you the Hex code for it.
MeasureIt
A useful tool for measuring the size of elements on a page
ScreenGrab!
Take screenshots of web pages, with options for the entire page, visible portion, or a selection.
Dust-Me Selectors
Parses a sites CSS to identify unused styles. Allowing you to cut down bloated stylesheets.
Fire FTP
Does what it says on the tin. An in-browser FTP client for Firefox.
