My Firefox must-have plugins list
To follow-up on my previous post, here’s some of my favorite Firefox extensions:
- Developer tools
- Colorzilla
- eye dropper to get the RGB color values of anything on your screen
- CSSViewer
- nifty CSS info for any element
- Firebug
- I couldn’t live without it.
- FirefoxView
- This adds a “view in firefox” right-click menu option in IE
- FoxyProxy
- Flexible proxy rule generator
- Header Monitor
- Adds a field to the status bar that displays the value for any particular response header. I set it to the “Server:” field since I’m always curious what other sites are running

- Helpful in debugging back HTML
- IE View

- MeasureIt
- Online ruler
- Screen grab!

- Web Developer
- If I could only choose one extension to install, this would be it.
- Colorzilla
- User Interface enhancements
