WebMonkey’s Five Best Firebug Extensions
Adam DuVander over at WebMonkey has compiled a list of their five favorite Firebug extensions. The ever-popular YSlow tops the list, but to that they add:
- Firecookie for easy access to cookie information
- FirePHP to integrating server-provided PHP debugging information with the Firebug UI
- Pixel Perfect for overlaying mock-ups on top of the real thing to ensure you’ve got a good implementation
- Rainbow for JavaScript syntax highlighting
Nice list!

Firefookie? lol
firecookie,
;-)
also:
YSlow
Jiffy
Web Developer toolbar
IE:
HttpWatch
Fiddler2
IE Developer Toolbar
and TrashMail.net for temporary email addresses, very useful for testing
I like Rainbow but it has a serious performance issue.. you’ll probably end up turning it off after a bit.
Oh yeah and YSLOW is conspicuously absent from this list.
firecookie is great :) been using it for a while now. especially helpfull if for some wierd reason your cookie gets deleted o.o u can see when one gets deleted.
@all these commenters. If you RTFA you’ll see YSlow is #1 on the list, like Ben pointed out.
ppl have to leran to read
Great links! Thanks for sharing them. I also like GridFox. That’s a nice addon for grid work.
I like the YMail extension which is a YSlow extension for the Firebug extension for Firefox.
