Firefox has Lots of Addons for the Users, So am here posting some of the Best Firefox Addons for Web Designers & Web Developers. These are some of the the Best Addons for Web Designers & Web Developers which are really usefull for them.must-have-firefox-add-ons

  • 1. ColorZilla: If there鈥檚 a color on a web page that you like, ColorZilla will find the precise code for it and allow you to paste it into your coding program. You can also create custom colors with its built-in palette browser. It saves the most-used colors for easy access later on. It鈥檚 powerful, it鈥檚 simple, it鈥檚 a must-have.
  • 2. CSS Validator: CSS Validator adds a right-click option in your browser, sending the CSS to the W3C CSS Validator. It opens the results in a new tab. CSS Validator is a nice tool that will come in handy often.
  • 3. Aardvark: Aardvark lets you select elements from
    a Web
    page and perform various actions on them. I use it to analyze the structure of a page. You can also remove and isolate elements or generate DOM code. I highly recommend it.
  • 4. FirePHP: FireBug is a fine tool for CSS, HTML, and javascript, but FirePHP, which only works when you have the FireBug extension installed, creates a full-featured development experience. With the help of both add-ons, you can view the quality of your PHP and find errors. It鈥檚 a great aid.
  • 5. Font Finder: Font Finder allows you to highlight a font you like on any site, right-click on the selection, and after choosing 鈥淔ont Finder鈥, view the full CSS text styling of the selection. You can then paste that into your won webpage.
  • 6. CSSViewer: No Web designer should be working without CSSViewer. The add-on informs you of all the CSS information you鈥檒l need from a site. Simply click on the page you want, open it in the Tools menu, and it will display CSS information. I use it almost every day.
  • 7. FireBug: Firebug is one of those extensions that you simply can鈥檛 be without. It lets you edit, debug, and view CSS, HTML, and
    JavaScript
    . Once you make a change to the HTML on the site, Firebug automatically displays it in the same pane. It鈥檚 extremely powerful.
  • 8. IE View: As long as you鈥檙e running Windows, IE View is a helpful tool. The extension adds an 鈥淥pen in IE鈥 option in the right-click menu, allowing you to quickly open a site in Internet Explorer. It鈥檚 a great way to check how a page looks in both browsers.
  • 9. Java Console: If you want to see how Java applets are running on Web pages, the Java Console is for you. You can monitor and debug applets, and get a full report on their performance.
  • 10. HTML Validator: HTML Validator is an extremely powerful tool available to Windows users only. The add-on gives you feedback about errors on the page. It also lets you know where problems need to be addressed. But unless you鈥檙e an advanced Web designer, stay away from this tool. It鈥檚 very complicated.
  • 11. LinkChecker: LinkChecker highlights links on any Web site and tells you if the link will direct you to a live site or if it will return a 404. I use it every day.
  • 12. Style Sheet Chooser II: Style Sheet Chooser II replaces Firefox鈥檚 built-in style sheet switcher and allows you to pick an alternate style that will persist on all pages of
    a Web
    site. It鈥檚 not something you鈥檒l use often, but when you do need something of the sort, Style Sheet Chooser II is the way to go.
  • 13. Web Developer: If you install any of the extensions in this roundup, Web Developer should be included. It adds a menu and toolbar to firefox giving you the option to display a page鈥檚 style, view and edit CSS, and much more. No Web developer should be without it.
  • 14. Poster: If you want to debug servers and make HTTP requests, Poster is the tool for you. It鈥檚 easy to use, you can set a content type, and within minutes, you鈥檒l have all the information you need to inspect the results of your HTTP query. Useful.
