My extension for web developers - The Developer Briefcase, has just crossed 10,000 downloads. A nice milestone and I hope it goes on to more and more people keep using it!

If you havent checked it out yet, and are curious, with it, you can

  • Check the IDs and Class names of the elements on the page
  • Highlight divs on the page
  • Highlight any elements which use new tags defined in the HTML5 spec
  • Highlight the deprecated elements on the page, if any.
  • Check the page for images with Blank ALT attributes, or no ALT attributes
  • View viewport size info
  • Do a WAVE accessibility check
  • View the page in an Opera Mini Simulator
  • Highlights form info
  • Outlines headings, tables, forms and various inline or block level elements
  • See how the page is without stylesheet info
  • Shorten the URL
  • Validate CSS and Feed info
  • View WHOIS details and Alexa Info
  • and much more
Note: Once you install the extension, then make sure to refresh any already open pages for the extension JS to be applied on them, otherwise it wont work on them. Any subsequent new pages opened after installing the extension will have no such issues though.

For the next version, I'm working on highlighting ARIA within the code, as well as some other suggestions by users and maybe even translations!
