Crossbrowser DOM inpector with Javascript

Probably everyone here know the Firebug plugin and the Web developer toobar for firefox and the one for Internet Explorer.
But for those running Mac, or Linux (using, e.g. wines ie4linux) the Internet explorer toolbar will not be usefull, if it works at all.

For a more comprehencive overview, you can see my CSS tag on Simpy.


17 10 2007 : Online Internet Explorer screenshot makers

When creating a theme or design for your site, you should test your CSS designs on several browsers. First thing, off course, is to make sure your CSS validates. Second thing is to make sure it renders good on Safari, Opera or Konqueror, for they are the only browsers that are truly standards compliant when it comes to CSS. The good thing is that these are available on Mac and Linux. But both do have problems with running Internet explorer. And as we all know, IE is not particularly good at rendering your well designed CSS properly. So you will need to test and debug your designs on IE


27 09 2007 : Snipplr Drupal's code snippet feed

Nice tip for all the Drupal hackers out there: snipplr code snippets for Drupal. It also has an RSS feed. Obviously, as with any unknown source, one should never ever use these snippets (except when you know PHP well).

Oh, and there is a nice jQuery feed too.
