Firebug - How many use it?

4 replies
I have used http://getfirebug.com/ and have really enjoyed it when it comes to editing CSS. It allows you to change the CSS file live, so you can see how any changes will look before you make them. How many here use it?

    The Web Developer plugin for FF is better for editing CSS I think.

      I would be completely lost without Firebug and FirePHP, especially for AJAX development.

      PHP drives me crazy sometimes - IMO it's an awkward and painful dog's breakfast of a language. FirePHP can send debug info from server side code directly to your Firebug console. No more 'echos'. Nice.

      If you're into CSS you might like Firefinder too, let's you see what your selectors are going to select, in real time.

    Yeah, I love it. It also is great for finding the style being accidently overwritten but another later in the stylesheet. Very handy with wordpress with all the different style sheets in the themes and plugins too!

    I use it and I love it. I even recommend it in my coaching when I talk about customizing Wordpress themes. Wouldn't know what to do without it.
