This is a neat addon I found while roaming through StumbleUpon today. Firebug is something every web developer should have. It helps out in multiple ways when debugging a page. It tracks load times, is a DOM inspector, allows real-time HTML, CSS and Javascript editing… It’s basically a debugging toolkit right in Firefox! Definitely makes things easier to track down when all you have to do is mouse over the area in question and Firebug takes you right to the code from where you can dig deeper into it’s inner workings… What CSS is applied here, HTML tag properties, it’s all there at your fingertips!

A friend of mine found this great addon for firefox called Split Browser which lets you split your web browser in any way you want. Side by side, above and below or a combination of the two!

What I really like is when I’m working on a website, and coupled with IETab, I can have one side show my site in an IE window and the other in Firefox instead of having to actually run both browsers.

There are a few bugs/features that still need to be worked out like tabbed browsing in new frames is disabled when Split Browser is running with a tab manager like Tab Mix Plus. Another is the lost ability to use bookmark keywords in new frames.

One feature I would like to see is an option or menu item which will allow me to automatically size my frames equally instead of having to do it manually.

In any case, I still think this extension is well worth it and any web developer would find it extremely useful when having to deal with IE and Firefox. Hopefully the developer will continue to work on this great addon and have these little bugs worked out in the next release!
