Firebug – Helpful Firefox Tool
Posted by Chris in Tips & Tutorials on March 22nd, 2009
Firebug – web development evolved.
“Firebug integrates with Firefox to put a wealth of development tools at your fingertips while you browse. You can edit, debug, and monitor CSS, HTML, and JavaScript live in any web page.” – Firebug Site.
This is a great tool for all you web developers! It is great to be able to edit CSS, HTML, and JavaScript on the fly. This can potentially save some serious development time. I use it ll the time and it save me time.
Some of the more advanced tools that stand out include: monitor network activity, debug and profile JavaScript and explore the DOM. I give this Firefox add-on top marks; well worth having this one installed!
Submitting to Web Directories

If there was just one tip that I could give you for submitting your site to website directories, it would be this one: Make yourself a text file to store all the details of the site that you are submitting. If you have many sites that you are submitting, this will be an even bigger help. I am sure that most of you would have thought of this anyway!
Create a new .txt file somewhere on your pc and name it something like mysite.txt (I called mine link-submissions.txt). This way, you don’t have to continually retype all the details into each submission form. I actually have a number of variations of the sites’ descriptions in my text file and it assists tremendously.
Your text file should consist of your title, URL, description, keywords and email address.
There are some plugins for browsers that auto fill the forms for you. Not all of them work that well though. Let me know if you have found a good one.
