Nice catch Paul, Xray is indeed very cool.

When I was installing Xray, I noticed WebDeveloper had gone to 1.0.1

Well, as 1.5.0.1 is only a minor update, you may be able to bump the extension.

Looking for a certain modification for your forum? Please take a look here before posting.

Since you were the one that pointed X-Ray out to me I guess I'm just returning the favor. wink

It appears that it is properly checking for updates now as well. The last version didn't do that for me. It always reported a failure when I'd force a search for updates.

Anyhow, your welcome Paul. Glad someone found this useful. I give the Author, Stuart Robertson, credit for promptly notifying those that posted the problem in the blog. A free useful product, AND customer service. Ya gotta love it...

Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar

The Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar provides several features for exploring and understanding Web pages. These features enable you to:

-- Explore and modify the document object model (DOM) of a Web page.
-- Locate and select specific elements on a Web page through a variety of techniques.
-- Selectively disable Internet Explorer settings.
-- View HTML object class names, ID's, and details such as link paths, tab index values, and access keys.
-- Outline tables, table cells, images, or selected tags.
-- Validate HTML, CSS, WAI, and RSS Web feed links.
-- Display image dimensions, file sizes, path information, and alternate (ALT) text.
-- Immediately resize the browser window to a new resolution.
-- Selectively clear the browser cache and saved cookies. Choose from all objects or those associated with a given domain.
-- Choose direct links to W3C specification references, the Internet Explorer team weblog (blog), and other resources.
-- Display a fully featured design ruler to help accurately align and measure objects on your pages.


The Developer Toolbar can be pinned to the Internet Explorer browser window or floated separately.

This Beta 2 version of the toolbar contains functionality and stability enhancements over previous versions and includes the following improvements.

-- You can now selectively enable and disable CSS parsing.
-- The Misc menu contains a color picker.
-- Several link reports are available.
-- When you select an element in the DOM element tree list, the selected element scrolls into view if it is not already visible in the browser window.
