About Me

My name is Josh. I'm 23 years old and I live in Bellevue, Washington with my wife Jamie and our 3 cats; Jack, Stanley and Oliver. I am a PHP developer for Zonar Systems in Seattle.

Firebug [Details] (Also Try: Fireclipse)

Awesome JavaScript/CSS/HTML Debugger for Firefox.

Fasterfox

Time your pageloads. Tweak your browser.

Web Developer

Another HTML/CSS/JavaScript tool. Has almost everything you would want that Firebug doesn't.

Colorpic (Win32 Only)

Lets you select pixels for their color at a zoomed view.

Measure It

Lets you draw boxes on the screen to measure various elements or areas. Very cool.

ColorZilla

Lets you select colors from a webpage within Firefox. Don't use this if you have colorpic. It's not as good.

Fiddler

An HTTP debugging proxy. Monitor all requests sent from your browser and server responses. Works automatically with IE. Will work with Firefox too as a proxy. See SwitchProxy below. Can also be configured to listen on non-loopback interfaces.

Fiddler 2

Includes HTTPS Support (I recommend having both 1 & 2 because 1.x seems to be a bit simpler to use)

SwitchProxy

Allows you to save proxy configurations. You can configure it to change via a context menu or a menu on the status bar. Very useful when debugging connections with Fiddler. Fiddler settings: localhost / 8888
