Firebug Like Debugger Bar for Internet Explorer

Firebug is one of those firefox extension which is pretty much unreplaceable and a tool that you simply can’t find a good substitute for in Internet Explorer, Safari or Opera. Developer tools do exist for these browsers, but firebug simply stand out in the pack.

Well, the meat of this post is about Internet Explorer and here’s the debugger tool named debugbar that is built with the attention to mimic what firebug is able to do in Firefox.

Debugbar Features

DOM Inspector: View DOM Tree and modify tags attributes and css attributes on the fly to test your page

HTTP Inspector: View HTTP/S request to check cookies, GET and POST parameters, view server info

Javascript Inspector and Javascript Console: View javascript functions for easier debugging, see Javascript and AJAX code

HTML Validator: Validate HTML code to correct and optimize your code and html size of your page

And many more features: See page cookies, get pixel color on a page, make a page screenshot…

I was in fact qute surprise to find this tool and find it quite useful development and debugging css and javascript. I’ sure there will be more useful things that you can use it for. I’m not a Internet Explorer lover but having some tools to benchmark and debug my work is essential.
