Re: Need advice on reliable way to identifyIE asthe browser

A word of warning about the IE plug-in: It does a nice job but it makes IE take forever to start and will cause it to crash a lot when you try to end it normally. Turning it off fixes this so I only turn it on when I need it.

Another good FF plugin is the Developer Toolbar. It has several
features not available in most DOM inspectors/debuggers) and is quite
popular. One of the features I like is that it has the ability to
outline certain types of elements (block elements, table elements, etc)
to provide a more visual understanding of the DOM and it really helps in
CSS debugging.

For IE, Microsoft has a Developer Toolbar that is like Firebug.

Have you use Firebug and has it been useful for looking at the DOM?

Thanks for the tip, Vern. I've heard Firebug mentioned in a number of
contexts, but never really understood what it did. I'll check it out.

Nathan.
