What's your favorite Firefox add on?

I have been looking for some good webdevelopment addons and have found a ton of cool things. One of my favorites is the lorem ipsum generator built into my browser, so I don't have to visit a site to generate it anymore. I also have a color pallette grabber, where I can go to any site and it makes an Adobe Color Palette file of the site. Seems to work good, although it grabs way too many colors IMO.

So, whats your favorite?

Re: What's your favorite Firefox add on?

Well most agree on the same ones . I'm checking them all out to see what I like and don't. So far, the best add-on I've seen so far is the one I had before the Dummy Lorem Ipsum Generator. Saves me a ton of time.

Re: What's your favorite Firefox add on?

Well, mine don't work anymore for some reason, I get a chrome error and don't know why it happens. So, I cannot use any of the add-ons, let alone add new ones...

However, *before* that happened, I guess the one I used the most was the web developer toolbar, so that should be my favourite.

Re: What's your favorite Firefox add on?

I would un-install FF (even remove the folder in C:\) and re-install it.

I have tried that - several times - and it doesn't work. I just tried to run an app called Revo Uninstaller that goes into a deep scan mode in the registry, maybe that will work. I'll let you know on reboot.

Thanks, it worked, Revo did the job. So, I'm typing this from within FF and got the WeDev toolbar back up. And while I was at it, I installed a few other add-ons as well, like the PDF download and FoxyTunes.

Good stuff!

From my list (see previous post) I really find that FireBug is the one I use the most.

Re: What's your favorite Firefox add on?

I just cannot get used to FireBug for some reason.
I find it's a pain in the ass to use, but that's probably me.
