Web Developer 0.7 and User Agent Switcher 0.3.1

  • User Agent Switcher, Web Developer

A new version of the Web Developer extension has just been released. This release contains many new features including adding a user style sheet, status icons that indicate whether the page is in standards compliance mode and if there were JavaScript errors and configurable keyboard shortcuts. Perhaps the biggest addition is the ‘Edit CSS’ feature. It is just the first iteration of this feature and I have some plans for enhancements on my to-do list.

I also released a minor update to the User Agent Switcher extension. The main update in this release is the addition of an option to automatically reset the user agent when the browser closes.

By default, this version of Web Developer seems to trash all of the icons on its toolbar if you simply upgrade from an old version. In Firefox, you can simply drag them back to the toolbar, but this isn’t the case in Seamonkey/Suite. So basically my toolbar in Seamonkey is screwed.

In Firefox yes this does happen, but it works in Seamonkey for me.

Your best bet is to uninstall the extension and then reinstall and this should fix the toolbar. Send me an email if it doesn’t…

How do you uninstall the extension without being able to click on the options button?

The easiest ways are:

1. Use the Tools -> Web Developer -> Options -> Uninstall Web Developer menu
2. Right click on the page and use the Web Developer -> Options -> Uninstall Web Developer context menu
3. Use the instructions at the Knowledge Base which should also work for Seamonkey

I couldn’t get any of those methods to work correctly, so I just nuked the profile and started anew. I guess it was about time to get a new profile in Seamonkey anyway. I’ve been using the same one since 1.4

hi chris
V 0.30 in moz.1.4.1 on Linux-Fedora; switching to agent presenting moz-version < 5, mozilla won’t restart after shut-down. Strace tells that moz. has internal check and “expects to find 5.0 or greater”. Moving all agent-settings from prefs.js to user.js seems to take care of the problem.

Something is wrong with the links on your page; it is not possible to download/install/connect to the new version 0.31

kind regards

There are a lot of problems with setting the user agent to a different value and the browser not restarting. This is why version 0.31 of the User Agent Switcher has the option to reset the value on exit.

As for the download link: it works fine for me. It points at the mozdev.org server so it can be slow and if that server is down then you will not be able to install, but everything is fine for me at the moment.
