Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar

It’s a pain to build web sites that behave prop­erly in Inter­net Explorer — and, if my IE7 beta any idi­ca­tion, it will con­tinue to be a pain.

But, Microsoft just released the Inter­net Explorer Devel­oper Tool­bar Beta.

Some of the many fea­tures are:

• View HTML object class names, ID’s, and details such as link paths, tab index values, and access keys.

• Out­line tables, table cells, images, or selected tags.

• Val­i­date HTML, CSS, WAI, and RSS web feed links.

• Dis­play image dimen­sions, file sizes, path infor­ma­tion, and alter­nate (ALT) text.

• Imme­di­ately resize the browser window to 800×600 or a custom size.

• Dis­play a fully fea­tured design ruler to help accu­rately align objects on your pages.

But of course, I still love the Web Devel­oper Exten­sion for Fire­fox. It’s just that some­times you have to work with IE.
