I, as a web developer, have found this to be very useful. I have many a time been stuck in a situation where a client likes the size of something on another website, and until this add-on it was very difficult to judge what the dimensions where. I would recommend this to novice and advanced users because of its ease of use, and scale of usefulness.

Ever needed to know what CSS styles were being applied where on a website? Or maybe just wanted to understand more about the layout? Then this is the add-on for you. It allows for the display of numerous important information about a website. Including: Cookies, CSS, Forms, Images, Misc. Information, Outline, Source Code, and many other options. Though this is a very useful tool, I would not recommend it for anyone below a moderate understanding of web design as it does have a learning curve.

This tutorial will show you how to download the latest version of Mozilla Firefox (v3.5.5.) and install on a Windows based pc.

1.) Go to http://mozilla.com/

2.) On the main page there should be a green button that looks like:

Click on it and select either “Run” or “Save” (either one will work. It depends on your preference.)

3.) If you clicked Run, the install should automatically start. If you selected save you will need to navigate to the .exe on your computer and click to run it.

(Note: If it asks you to for permissions select either “Continue” or “Allow” depending on which option it gives you. This will happen on Windows Vista.)

4.) Follow the steps in the installation to finish installing Firefox.

(Note: All of the defaults are already set, so all you should need to do is keep clicking “Next” and it will be setup correctly.)

5.) To get to the Internet you will no longer click on

you will now click on

6.) Look for our other Firefox posts on how to install Addons for Firefox and Customize its look.
