Finally!

Finally! A decent and useful IE debugging capability!

Great, great job!

This is, by far, the best developper tool I have seen for IE by now, a real quantum leap in capabilities and productivity gains!

And it finally provides some FireBug-like capabilities.

Well, it is not yet as advanced as FireBug, but I am sure, that this will happen!

I do have some suggestions, to make it even better, though.

Style display:

Could the CSS-Parameters be displayed in lower-case letters?

=============================================

The element currently selected ist only highlighted for a very short time on selection.

It is desirable to have that highlighted until the next selection, so that you know, where you are at.

=============================================

The rules applied are indicated like "/* Rule N°28 from /ZDF/style/print/print_heute.css */"

Could this be changed to "/* Line N° 123 in  /ZDF/style/print/print_heute.css */"

=============================================

FireBug not only displays the rule applied, but all rules of a selector, striking out the the rules no longer in effect as the were later overwritten.

This greatly helps optimize the CSS and to remove redundant definitions....

=============================================

The coolest FireBug CSS-feature is the ability to add/modify/delete CSS definitions in an selector, seeing immediately the effect of CSS-changes

It even allows changes in the "Layout" display of an element.....

This is also desperately needed for IE......

=============================================

The "Attrs" tab should allow to add/delete attributes, with immediate WYSIWYG display.

=============================================

The "Source" tab should allow to add/delete HTML, with immediate WYSIWYG display.

=======================================================================================================================

Please do not consider this to be a criticism of any kind, it is definitely not!

Just some ideas about making it even better.

Again, a superb job!

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback.

Some of your requests are already in my todo. I will add the other ones as well.

Stay tuned, those features will happen in future releases !

Re: Finally!

Some more features:

Display "Comp. Style" entries sorted alphabetically.

On page reload display last context, so that you do not need to identify an element again.

"F5" and "Ctrl+R" do not always work.

Eliminate the need of the "target" to identify an element, just make it "clickable"

I don't understand this one. Can you be more precise ?
