My Favorite Firefox-Extensions

Extensions for all day use

  • Tab Mix Plus The following features I really like: load homepage on every new tab, when tabs do not fit make it Multi-row, undo close tab, max number of rows to display, min- and max-width of a tab, show progress meter, …
  • ieview is an entry in the context menu opens the page using Internet Explorer.
  • Extension related to web development

  • Web Developer Extension for a bunch of features
  • LiveHTTPheaders for viewing HTTP-Headers.
  • Since LiveHTTPheaders’ support for modifying HTTP-Request-Headers is limited (v 0.10) you may try modifyheaders
  • For just manipulating the usageagent-settings I prefer
    User Agent Switcher (for which I recently contributed a bugfix)
  • Any comments?

      Instead of IEView, I’m using IEtab. The main difference is, that you can open Internet Explorer rendered documents in a tab instead of opening a new instance of IE.

      Also, you can switch between IE rendering and Firefox rendering on the fly. There’s a status-bar icon to do just that.
