    Thank you very much — I was back down to Fire­fox 2 for a day or two there! Fan­tas­tic work. :)

    THANK YOU. From the bot­tom of my heart.

    Let me put a shout out to your “reload exter­nal files” on the to-do list. I would use this fea­ture hun­dreds of times a day if it were to be implemented.

    I’m cons­tantly modif­ying js or css and not the actual html.

    This is the coo­lest web tool bar we have ever seen. We have already used it about 5 times in two days to great effect. Kudos to you Chris. Exce­llent Job !

    This is just a war­ning and doesn’t stop the exten­sion from ins­ta­lling. It is the recom­men­ded solu­tion by Mozi­lla for fixing the issue that stop­ped the exten­sion being com­pa­ti­ble with Fire­fox 3.

    This appears to be bloc­king javasc­ript from run­ning on any page.

  15. Chris Pederick says:
    May 30, 2008 at 16:08

    Syama das — I’m not seeing this pro­blem — are you sure you haven’t disa­bled JavaSc­ript under the ‘Disa­ble’ menu? If not I would sug­gest crea­ting a new profile.

    I got a WD update last week thanks, its a great plu­gin. I use WD and Fire­bug all the time, they are both really help­ful plugins.

    Thank you, Chris, very much. Its best exten­tion for fire­fox. I am glad you are still impro­ving code in it.

    I’ve come to rely on this add-on so much that I wouldn’t be downloading/installing FF3 today if this wasn’t yet com­pa­ti­ble. Thanks so much for all your work!

    Exce­llent work Chris!

    I’ve used Web Deve­lo­per for the past few years and having just switched to FF 3 am really glad you upda­ted it!

    Great work! Web­de­ve­lo­per is my top must-have extension.

    But with FF 3.0 my liked Ctrl + Shift + H for Page HTML Vali­da­tion Short­cut doesn’t work as expec­ted?: It shows up the Fire­fox Library.

  22. Chris Pederick says:
    July 3, 2008 at 06:59

    Eis­tee — The key­board short­cuts can be con­fi­gu­red in the options.

    I use this in ger­man and often, but in Fire­fox 3 dosn’t work the “replace ima­ges for alter­nate text”. Can somey­body con­firm this mistake?

    Hi Chris,

    I’m using the tool­bar under Ubuntu hardy with fire­fox 3.0.1 and there seems to be a pro­blem with the css path using the “Dis­play Ele­ment infor­ma­tion” function.

    The clas­sic yellow info win­dow in fact goes beneath the page witouth any style applied to it.

    Hope u can fix it asap.

    Bye

    Fulippo — does this hap­pen on every page or just cer­tain pages?

  27. Christophe says:

    Thank you for your exce­llent tool­bar.
    I recently dis­co­ve­red the “Edit view source with appli­ca­tions”. It’s just what I need to open my text edi­tor directly from the pages ! (I Use WinXP, Fire­Fox and Con­Text as code edi­tor).
    A few days ago I ins­ta­lled Fire­Fox 3.0.1 and “Edit view source with appli­ca­tions” doesn’t work any­more, I tried with various appli­ca­tions like Note­Pad, my magic tool has gone away !
    Thanks in advance for your help !

    Hi Chris,

    sorry for the late res­ponse. This bug appears on every sin­gle page.

  32. Chris Pederick says:
    August 27, 2008 at 06:41

    Fulippo — I would sug­gest ins­ta­lling the exten­sion under a new pro­file and seeing if it works there since that fea­ture works on my test machines.

  33. Fulippo says:
    August 27, 2008 at 23:42

    @Chris: I’ve encoun­te­red the pro­blem under 2 dif­fe­rent ins­ta­lla­tions of Ubuntu Hardy. I will try to use a dif­fe­rent pro­file maybe it will work.

    Thanks for your support

    Hello Chris,

    I didn’t notice this lis­ted on the issues page but I’ve found that the Show Hid­den Ele­ments option doesn’t reveal hid­den form fields.

    Aside from that I’d like to say this is an exce­llent pro­duct! I use it all of the time.

  35. Chris Pederick says:
    August 28, 2008 at 11:14

    War­dell — I’ll fix this in a future release.

  36. Fulippo says:

    @Chris: I’ve resol­ved the pro­blem with the exten­sion under ubuntu hardy. I had ins­ta­lled the exten­sion from ubuntu repo­si­tory. It was ver­sion 1.1.5 ins­ta­lled from the pac­kage firefox-webdeveloper.

    I’ve ins­ta­lled ver­sion 1.1.6 from your site and now everything’s as it should.

    Hope it could be useful

    Best exten­sion for Fire­fox to me. I use it every day at work. it saves whole lot of time.

    I hope search in css files will be fixed soon.

    Keep up the good work!
