Adding Tools into Web Developer

April 13, 2008 – 10:30 pm by Dani Iswara

What kind of tools can we add into the Web Developer (Firefox extension)?

By default, the extension have already installed these tools:

  • Validate CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) by W3C (World Wide Web Consortium)
  • Validate Feed by W3C
  • Validate X/HTML (Extensible HyperText Markup Language) by W3C
  • Validate Links (W3C)
  • Validate WAI (Web Accessibility Initiative) and Section 508 (by Cynthiasays.com)
  • Integrated DOM Inspector, Error & Java Console, Display Page
    Validation, Validate Local CSS & Local HTML (HyperText Markup Language)

If you’d like to give a try, please install the extension first (Web Developer - Firefox extension).

Go to Web Developer toolbar menu » Tools » Edit Tools » Add
(on ‘Tool Type’: choose ‘URL’), we can add these tools:
