Firefox Extensions

I would just like to thank my good friend, Aurorealis. A few days ago, she started talking about Firefox Extensions. The next day, she listed the most useful extension that she had.

I hadn’t used any extensions except the StumbleUpon toolbar. I was ignorant about them. I went on over to the extension website and took a look around. Being a developer, I found some tools that suited me just fine. I installed the HTML Validator (based on Tidy) extension. It was pretty wild to use it, but it didn’t take to XML pages too well.

I later downloaded another extension known as Checky. This one is more my style. It doesn’t just validate HTML - it also validates section 508 compliance, CSS, RDF, RSS, Links, Meta Tags, and more. This little program looks like a dream come true.

Thank you Aurora.

    I can’t imagine surfing without these after only a couple of months use.

    Yeah, I especially find the User Agent Switcher handy since many sites don’t support Firefox (for whatever reason). My hubby showed these extension things to me, and I do agree they’re very, very useful!
